Default old racing bike

Does anyone have or know of someone that has an old honda racing bike. I need a unique project seeing my CBR is coming close to completion. I mean even in a box would be cool....the more of a challenge the better. 4 cycle....2 cycle......250cc and up. just not blown up. i am a tool and die machinist so fabricating just about anything is doable.


anyone???

Well.. maybe that guy could point you in the right direction. :/ They've got a lot of old bikes of the unfinished variety on ebay as well but I dunno if they're race bikes.

Check out www.caferacer.net Theres usually something good for sale there and plenty of ideas, plenty of those guys race in vintage series and plus the rest of the guys always have something unique going on to give some ideas. Other than that I've seen plenty of good stuff going on sale in craiglist.

Does it HAVE to be a racebike? because you could take any older bike, and actually have a more drawn out project which= more fun and heart being put into making it complete.

I myself will soon be undertaking a WILD cafe racer project for a friend who wants a cafe bike to ride.

You should look into finding a RC30 or RC45
