Cafe Racer Parts Appraisal

Custom Cafe Racer Motorcycle

This is a custom-built cafe racer style motorcycle. Its overall appearance is predominantly black, contributing to a sleek and classic aesthetic. The vehicle features a large, glossy black fuel tank which appears to be a notable aftermarket or custom component. The seat is a distinctive feature, upholstered in a contrasting red diamond-quilted pattern, providing both visual interest and a classic cafe racer feel. The rear section of the seat culminates in a streamlined 'tail hump', common for this style of motorcycle. The engine casing displays a brushed or bare metal finish, suggesting an older model or a deliberate choice to retain a raw, utilitarian look. The front forks and handlebars are black, though the handlebars show some wear with their exposed metal and possibly worn grips. The front wheel is a spoked design, while the rear wheel is also spoked with a wide, robust-looking tire, indicative of a custom street-performance application. The suspension components, particularly the rear shocks, have visible gold-toned elements, possibly part of an upgrade. The motorcycle is currently on its kickstand and appears to be stored in what looks like a garage or workshop environment, surrounded by various household items and wooden furniture. There are no obvious maker’s marks or signatures visible in the image, suggesting it may be a heavily customized build rather than an off-the-shelf production model. The overall condition appears to be used but well-maintained, consistent with a custom project. The visible condition issues are minimal but include some wear on the handlebars and potentially some dust or grime from storage.
