Actually getting some rain here in Southern California for a change

25th Anniversary Edition Ton UP Machine CB750K

Well, next year will be my 25th Anniversary of creating machines over on this side of the pond, many people have asked would I replicate the infamous K5 with Cafe on the tank to celebrate a quarter of a Century building Motorcycles, and I thought, I may go along the similar lines to that very […]
