AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Sold by the same workshop that created it.
Completely dismantled and restored in every part in 2016.
To this end, it was decided to create a unique Cafe Racer-style motorcycle.
The fundamental changes are:
Aluminum steering plates machined from solid.
The artisanal headlight bracket.
Lafranconi racing exhausts.
The tank of a Honda 550 Four, treated with Tankerite and repainted.
The electrical system has been completely redone.
Everything is inserted into a steel tube to render it TOTALLY invisible.
The two-seater saddle was handmade, with a painted iron frame and two-tone leather.
The battery is special, a great point, and it never runs out.
The license plate holder, built from solid aluminum, also serves as a mount for the indicators, the position light, and the brake light. The front fender in satin aluminum.
The dashboard indicators are mounted on a handmade mount on the handlebars.
The little mirrors are custom-made.
Aluminum test plugs designed for square heads.
Tires with about 80% tread left but dated; includes 2 new 2025 tires to mount.
Front radial brake pump
Lathe-turned aluminum pedestals.
It also has several details that make it unique and special, and that allowed me to participate with excellent results in several exhibitions.
Also heavily advertised in industry magazines.
Transfer or export fees not included

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
