Kawasaki S1 250 Cafe Racer - The Beginning
We have been asked to make a Cafe racer from a early 70's Kawasaki S1 250 (a drum braked KH250) The owner Neil has bought the bike in a poor state as a basis for a cafe styled bike and has give us the bike to create his vision. We have had the bike for a while now but am only just getting to post the details so I will just post the before pic's to start with. Neil brought us the bike almost in one lump ( I have lost the first complete pic's ) and we stripped it...
