Hi guys! My name is Bang and I'm very new to the motorcycle community. I had a bike but my dad wrecked it so now I'm thinking of building one! I have very little experience with bikes and looking for help. So I guess my first question is should I start with a frame up or buy a used bike and take it apart?

Don't get in over your head on your first project. You'll get frustrated and never even see it run.

Listen to those guys. Buy a used bike, ride it for a while, and then upgrade it. That's what a Cafe Racer is.
