Last February I’ve posted this beautiful Honda CB400 Cafe Racer built by Retrorides.With this bike, the Brazilian brothers Gustavo and Rodrigo Lourenço showed what they are capable of and that they were able to redefine the standards for building a Honda CB cafe racer, still the #1 bike for cafe racer projects.With so many unique creations it’s hard to stand out, but the CB400 simply hit.

For starters, the cockpit of the bike is a comprehensive collection of dials, warning lights and switches arranged on a custom panel. They offer information such as revs, temperature and the fuel level, but the actual speed is displayed.
My brother happened to be riding a K100RS at the time and constantly went on about how amazing it handled for an older machine.
