    Cafe racer inspiration for the XB

    So in fear of being called a hipster I have always loved cafe racers or retro modern bikes and cars. But to me it needs to have that splash of modern tech in it.

    So I started looking and I've seen a few cafe racers people have done by making metal body parts and tails so I thought I'd share some that after I get my bike thoroughly abused and and worn out. I might be looking at trying to do one myself. So here are a few inspiration I found that people have rendered in concept, and would like your opinions.image.jpgimage.jpg

    Hard to hide the battery and fuses in these, not sure where I would tuck them into.

    I guess it's prof that these designs can't work unless I started it with the battery separate, or kept the airbox on to hide it under. To bad the frames not wide enough to hide the battery and fuse box inside, but it's already such a tight fit.
