Mark's 2 CB750's, crafted from metal, blood, sweat and maybe even a few tears.
I own a metal fabrication shop in Phoenix. I have been a big fan of the cafe racer style for a long time. I have built custom Harley's in the past but the cafe racers that I have built, give me more satisfaction.

The first is a 1974 CB 750 that I went with the more traditional racer style. It turned out nice and it was fast as all hell. The second one I decided to go with a more aggressive style. I wanted people to know that this is a cafe racer, but question exactly what the hell it is?

I wanted to be able to take it to a bike show and for it to hold its own with the super expensive customs. This bike has more hours in metal work than anything I have ever built in the past. I hand made the rear section of the frame,the tank,the side panels and the tail out of steel.

I used 2006 R6 shocks and handlebar controls on the bike and a CBR1000 taillight that is flush mounted under the tail. The motor that was in the bike when I got it had 65000 miles on it and had some leaks and the rings were bad, so I bought a brand new motor from a guy on e-bay that was still in the crate from the factory with zero miles on it.

So now the bike for the most part is brand new.
