Seen a few Hodaka cafe racer adaptations & HT’s Daytona build. Any more photos of any& all chrome tank(Hodaka’s of course) cafe racers would be cool. Thx

Here's a nice one I like. I think it's from Norway. The 2 the Max project below is my work in progress. Mine has a competition theme but early on a cafe racer was considered. Check this one out with its big Honda brake!

That project is coming along very neatly, Max.

If you are a member of the Hodaka Club and receive the online Resonator newsletter/magazine, there's a two part article by Jack Broomall on building the Harry Taylor replica road racer, Volume 2-#22 and #23 that illustrates a very nice project along those lines.

Max, Throwchain, Kelly- thanks, these are just what I hoped for. All are cool in there unique way. Kinda liking the fairing look and bike w/ fender strip on leaves is strong. Perhaps a few more examples w/ come around.

Hey socal, is the one pic you posted a Van Tech chassis? And what type of mods have been done to the motor? Looks like a rotary valve set up, but do I see the carb on the back of the cylinder?
