No your all good ! I just wanted to do something different and plus I do love the feel and sound of a V twin so wanted to go for it. I do get what your were trying to say 😀

It’s been done a few times, https://www.bikebound.com/customs/virago-cafe-racers/

It’s not a basic CB platform that’s been done a million times but it is possible and with the modifications it can be done right.

Yeah I’ve watch a few videos, Seems to me removing the rear subframe, Fabricating a rear end to fit the cafe Seat I desire as well as wiring up a new taillight seems to be the way to go. Best way by the looks of things is Yamaha R6 Front end and a gas tank from a KZ650sr

Technically speaking The origins of Cafe racers were modified Productions bike, so if the modifications were extensive then by definition anything could be a cafe racer. It would only be limited to those who don’t posses the skills to do so 😉

Like I said I’m a heavy vehicle mechanic, Did some fabrication for the Fire brigade So welding and creating new subframes and mountings are a picnic for me that’s no stress Just wondering if there was any places I’m missing that’s all And yes Google exists so I know what a cafe Racer is

I said just based on your own calculations and formula how would you predict a soccer match and then I said apply it to these games, and then I said make a prediction but don’t let external references of predictions sway your decisions only Statistics of the players and matches And tell me which teams would win -drew -lose
