            Looks like a Honda or Ducati just as much as it does a BMW.

              It had BMW emblems all over so it definitely was neither of the two.

                Oh, I know. I was just stating it looked like both of those.

                    I can answer this. Its a BMW R75, the only thing it has in common with Honda and Ducati is that is has two wheels and a motor :)

                      agreed.....


                      looks like a duck and a honda???..sheesh. Dude( not you Dennis), you dont have a good eye.

                      I watch Cafe Racer all the time on cable....awesome cool bikes.

                      Back in the day( early 80s) I built a kick ass GS550 cafe style during grad school......I was cool and didnt even know it.

                      Nice taste Dennis.

                        I've caught the show a few times, really really awesome stuff there.

                        Any pics of your old ride?

                              its a bmw, they make crazy ass engines that have tumors stick out of the sides. i built 2 cafe racers and basically its all custom. the engine may be bmw but the frame could be honda, some aftermarket seats. the front is definetaly aftermarket
