Although after seeing this one it is apparent that the bottom scoop body piece needs to be smaller...this one looks out of place the way it is. But otherwise, I love the cafe racer look.

My question now is...is it a custom job or is that scoop available aftermarket? I'm looking for something to fill the area between my two extended forward controls so that they don't look to be hanging out in mid air.

All he has actually done is added a bullit fairing; seat paint, and an engine scoop! Sorry, not a cafe racer in my books.

If he could hook up a heel/toe shifter along with everything else then that would be it.

You would then need clip ons to go with that position. Now we got something.
