I’ve owned a lot of cafe racers and my favourite is this vintage AMF Harley Davidson i picked up for <$200:

I'm also an Aero fanboy. I had a custom Cafe made to my measurements, then flew to Scotland to pick it up. This is the best way to ensure you get exactly what you want. Plus, Scotland.

I've had a metric butt-ton of Cafe's. The one cut to my dimensions, in the CXL HH in natural (paired with a single malt highland Scotch) is the correct answer (IMHO - YMMV)

Apparently, I don't have any good photos of what it looks like now, so you get a goofy Highlands photo when it was new.

As an Aero fanboy, I must of course recommend my custom J-10

I don’t think so. I bought this used. The leather is glorious.

Looks great. I might do a custom Comet through Thurston. I need it a bit longer.
