CAFE RACER

Lately I've been really wanting a motorcycle. Don't get me wrong, I love scootering around sf, but riding around on a 45cc all the time can be pretty limiting. However, given my size, I'm pretty limited in the kinds of bikes I can own given that I'm not really into crotch rockets/sport bikes, or choppers of the sort. I've realized the perfect fit for me is a cafe racer. I'm in love with the vintage Honda CB450. Apparently very rare and highly desireable but just what I want, small, stylish, and a little rock and roll.
