They were....I don't know when you think the cafe movement came and went but it started in the late 1950s in england (and hasn't really died out there yet), migrated to the US in the early 1960s and ran until the 1980s before street legal race replicas started to take over in 1985. There were plenty of RD350/400,KH400,H-1/H-2,GT350,500,750 etc. cafe racers built during the 1970s, just as there were choppers and other types of bikes built out of them as well. The problem is that a real cafe bike leads a very hard life and a lot of them died some pretty horrific deaths at the hands of their owners (espically two strokes), and thus very few survived. I personally killed a vintage h1 cafe bike (with all the right pieces) that had been in a friend's older brother's bike and stored in his garage for 15 years, I ran it out of oil because I knew so little about 2 smokes at the time. I knew dozens of bikes that died like that.quote:
Nice picture and I love the clean look of two-stroke street bikes.
Don't you ever wonder what would have happened if bikes like that(RD350/400,KH400,H-1/H-2,GT350,500,750 etc.) were a available when Cafes were starting to come on the scene! History may have been changed!
