This is a customization and fix of a few different Cafe Racers Things. I took what I liked from each, modified some, repaired some, and created some completely new pieces to suit my vision. I wanted the wheels to spin, so I made the changes needed for that to happen. I also had to fix a few things that would prevent the model from being assembled at all. I also wanted a twin (all bikes should have symmetrical exhausts) so I modified the engine to have a second exhaust port and mirrored the pipe. I also HATED the big ole clunky solid triple tree (that was impossible to mount to the tank btw...) so I made up some normal plates that leave the forks exposed... as it should be in a perfect world. There are some pieces that would be too small to print with any accuracy, so I used the "sharpie paint" on a few to give them a little more detail.

The files included are the exact files I printed the Blue model with, so they work. Every part is designed to sit flat on the print bed. Minor cleaning of holes with a drill and trimming of the bottoms and this model goes together easily.

There are some options (thus a few extra pieces) that you can chose: single or dual front brakes, rear brakes or no, clipons or standard drag bars, 1 tach or tach and speedo combo... its up to you.

I printed this model at 200% to give it a little more presence, but it will print at any size your printer can handle.

Some of the bits here are only available in this thing, so, If you use them, please give credit...
