1983 Honda CX500 – Café Racer Rescue

Thursday, 18 March 2021 by Purpose Built Moto
The Honda CX500 was what we call a “rescue build”. It’s always a tough job to take on a half completed build. We’ve had it happen before, a deflated customer comes in after a bad experience wanting their dream bike built how they imagined it. The bike they’ve received isn’t up to scratch and now

Honda CB400F Vintage Café Racer

Tuesday, 10 November 2020 by Purpose Built Moto
A few years ago I was given the chance to build a great brat styled Honda CB350 four. With its simple layout, and easy to work with styling we were able to create something pretty special for that client. So when Paddy asked me to bring his 1975 CB400F back from the dead I jumped

Signature series Ducati GT1000 Sport Classic  The story of this bike is a long one, not only because of the extensive modification we’ve done to this Ducati GT1000 Café racer but because for a long time, I delayed even starting this build. The bike wasn’t sat in my shop dormant but I held off

Integrated / Recessed LED brake light cafe racer tail hoop

Wednesday, 13 May 2020 by Tom
Fabricating a recessed LED strip brake light into the frame This is one I stumbled upon the answer to only recently. When I first started building bikes, I used a few of these LED strip brake lights, just affixed to the tail hoop not recessed in. I then started to get creative with my brake

Sunday, 22 September 2019 by Tom
DIY LED Headlight + LED turn signal upgrade for Yamaha XSR700 and XSR900 The extremely popular Yamaha XSR700 and XSR900 have become a favourite with garage builders to customise, and one of my most asked questions is will the Purpose Built Moto LED headlight work with the XSR700 headlight brackets? The answer is yes, however

Ducati Sport Classic Cafe Racer – Restyled

Tuesday, 30 July 2019 by Tom
Ducati GT1000 Sport Classic Café Racer The GT1000 was released before its time, had it been a few years later the market would have lapped up these beefy 1000cc modern classics. But they didn’t, and Ducati stopped making them which means some models are getting to be in high demand. Some of us we’re however,
