Finally done with Wekfest Coverage I can hit you guys with the stuff I’ve been saving over the past week. I actually thought I posted this up already, maybe it was just a dream…lol. This video to me is the edit of the year. So much to say about it. Simplicity at it’s best. Cafe racer with Beethoven playing in the background and you can’t get much better. Serious enjoy this. From someone who is just starting to get into video editing, I have a lot to learn.

Classified Moto is a motorcycle shop that recently opened up shop for customizing your bike. From what I have seen they created really beautiful cafe racer style bikes. The one pictured below is really special. I was mentioning to a friend about these “modern” cafe’s. They call this one the XV920R6-R. It’s a early 80’s Yamaha XV with a R6 front fork and swing arm. Pretty sick considering your getting the look of a really great cafe racer and the handling of a modern street bike. I want one.
I have to say, ever since the riding season started, my itch to ride got huge. I owned a ZX-6 for about 2500 miles last year, but sold it to buy my current ’75 rabbit project. And although I love the little rabbit, my enthusiasm for riding never wen’t away. It’s just a freedom that simply can not be explained. Anyway’s this video below, I thought, was really great. The visuals just go with the soundtrack so well. A group of friends riding bikes for the simple pleasure of it. Listen to the soundtrack, as it is surprisingly funny. As an enthusiast, sometimes you just want to ride. Nothing else. I think this video and the song expresses that perfectly.
The motorcycles look extremely fun to ride. I’m definitely going to look into building one.
I came across this video on another blog and thought it was great. It’s always nice to see a group of guys doing what they love and enjoy every minute of it. On top of that they build really nice cafe racers.
Much props to these guys.
This has got to be the sexiest mix of motorcycle magic I have ever seen. This started as a MV Agusta F4-1000R, which I personally think, is the most beautiful motorcycle, and was transformed into a great looking cafe racer. There really isn’t any way of identifying the bike besides the beginning of the rear undertail exhaust. I think it’s a great idea. The great sound and handling of a MV with the different look of a cafe racer.

Included in my obsession with all things on wheels are the “cafe racer” motorcycles. The classic and timeless look that these motorcycles bring are amazing. That mixed in with a light, reliable, and great handling package, you’ll have nothing but good times with it. The Cafe pictured below I found a couple days ago, and it is one that really drops my jaw. Great color choice and execution. I wish I knew more about it, because it really is close to perfect. It looks to be like a late 70’s Honda CB550 or 750.
Enjoy
