Honda CB750 Stainless by Steel Bent Customs
This Honda CB750 cafe racer by Steel Bent Customs is a fantastic example of minimalist custom motorcycle building, there's nothing on the bike that doesn't need to be there from a purely functional perspective and I kind of think that this is how it should be.
Norton Commando 961 Cafe Racer
I was happy to learn last week that Norton Motorcycles have begun customer deliveries of the new Norton Commando 961 model. There had been some concern that the bikes weren't ever going to ship due to financial issues but it now appears that, in true British style, they've hunkered down through the tough times and...
Honda CB750 Cafe Racer by Steel Bent Customs
This minimalist Honda CB750 cafe racer is a quintessential Steel Bent Customs motorcycle, all the unnecessary nonsense is in the garbage leaving just a raw, almost skeletal motorbike that'll happily carve up mountain roads with the best of them.
Honda S90 Cafe Racer by Deus Ex Machina
The Honda S90 is one of those bikes that doesn't get the cafe racer treatment nearly often enough. The ultra lightweight motorcycle was manufactured by Honda between 1964 and 1969, it was fitted with a 4-stoke, air-cooled single cylinder engine capable of 8hp and capable of just over 60mph (with a light rider).

The base kit includes a hand-formed aluminum...
XS400 Cafe Racer by MotoHangar
The humble Yamaha XS400 isn't a bike that we see getting converted into cafe racer form all that often, it seems a shame as the bike has serious potential.
Cortadito Cafe Racer
The story behind the Cortadito Cafe Racer is one of those happy coincidences, it was a story that fell into my lap and along with the discovery of a great little cafe racer was the discovery of a great new Miami bike builder for us to keep an eye on.
Cherry Cafe Racer by Deus
Deus Ex Machina has a refreshingly heretical approach to cafe racer building, this bike is one of their latest creations and you can tell at a glance that it's a signature, antipodean cafe belter.
XS650 Café Racer by Alexandre Trotin
Alexandre is one of those guys who seems to have life better figured out than me. Not only is he training to be a luxury yacht captain, he's living in Guadeloupe, a stupendously beautiful Caribbean island paradise.
Nortorious by Goldammer Cycle Works
Nortorious is one of those highly unusual custom café racers that only comes along once in a blue moon. Although it looks fairly straight forward it's actually a turbo-charged engineering tour de force featuring more custom engine components than any other bike we've ever posted on Silodrome.
