Description
Mid-sized RYCA cafe racer conversion that packs a punch. If you’re looking for the classic cafe racer style bike without the hassle of old engine maintenance, this one is for you. This bike is built off of a Suzuki Savage cruiser frame accompanied by its massive single cylinder 650cc motor. Don’t let the relative size give you the wrong impression though ....I’m 6’-4”, 240lbs and this thing rips. The complete RYCA cafe racer kit was installed by a shop in San Diego along with a top end engine rebuild. Kit was purchased for around $4000 but didn’t include the cost of the original donor bike, installation cost, paint, and all the extras that were not spared for this build. I recently replaced the speedo cable and ignition coil, changed the oil and rebuilt the carb. Tires have less than 2k miles, and bought a new battery late last year. After the conversion was complete, the bike lost 60lbs and now sits at around 290lbs. Hard for me to describe but the bike ranges between a spirited and robust street feel. While I haven’t ridden it in GA, originally used as a bar hopper in San Diego, this bike gets non-stop attention...almost too much for me. If it’s not seen, it will definitely be heard...it’s loud. Paint was in perfect condition, however when shipping it over here from SD, the gas tank took a few bumps and needs bodywork. I got two quotes ranging from $300-$500 and this would allow you to change the color if wanted. Also can ride as is, they’re not structural, just cosmetic. Selling because I shouldn’t be on a motorcycle...too accident prone. I have title and I will be renewing registration shortly. Awesome bike and sad to see it go. Price was originally $4500, now dropped to $3250. Have any questions, be sure to let me know and can provide more pictures if needed.
