R80RT is alive.
After overhaul Bing carburetors,it could not keep engine idling though I adjusted idling screw.
But a few days later,I found basic cable cable inadequate.
Now R80RT runs well. I can go short tour with my friend.

Sportster at Yokohama HOT ROD SHOW
Above sportster are HIDE Motorcycle's custom bikes.
Recent Japanese sportster custom trend is making it compact.
They cut rear seat stay and cut rear fender and then move number plate to side mount.
They make petrol tank small. They also make 2004 later model's petrol tank small remaining fuel pump inside.
I like HIDE Motorcycle's sportster.

Trial
I placed used STINKY type-3 on SR400 Sun burst green as a trial.
This tank volume is bigger than stock tank. It mean it can run long distance.

I purchased "SUZUKI carry" 660cc light track
I purchased it for my daily use. It can carry SR400/SR500 and smaller bikes like Ruckas.
If I started business related motorcycle,this track will work to carry bikes on his back.
スズキキャリーを購入した。これでSRやR69Sやらを運べる。
スロープをまだ買っていないが、荷台の高さは思った以上に高い。
非力な私にはバイクを勢いで載せることは難しいだろう。
ワイヤレスリモコンのウィンチを取りつける事にしよう！

Customize to PRESTO's look SR500
PRESTO is famous in high performance SR custom.
Their paint work is awesome.
When I make PRESTO look SR,it will cost a lot.
Firstly I have to change wheels,swing arm,front fork,brakes,muffler and on and on.
Changing to such parts cost 200,000yen or more
and paint cost 100,000yen or more.
I happened to find used SR400 at 188,000yen as shown above 3photos.
If I got extra budget,I will buy it.
But ...... not now.
PRSTO's blog is ;

They make cool street fighters.
I do not imagine it Hornet 250,so many custom parts.
You might not see this front fairing,which is from Suzuki Banduit's fairing.
Please take a look their works.

Article 1
I would like to get HawkGT someday,
which V-twin engine is famous in durability.
And I like HawkGT's simple looks.
By the way,
Does anyone assemble HawkGT's fuel tank and seat onto VRF400R ?
Is it possible ?

SR400 green
Is this modern street tracker?
If I were this bike owner,I would like to go with cafe racer looks with lower suspension.

BMW vs Kawasaki Street fighter
When I went to Ramen restaurant,three motorcycles parked.
left R1200R is light weight and easy to control.
Right Kawasaki is cool street fighter.
I watched those two bikes and especially seat.
Kawasaki's seat more narrow than BMW
so it must be good to non tall guys like me.
Lower seat is better to me and non tall guy.
It is serious issue.

BMW R100 + Motoco seat
Motoco brand is my favorite.
I think Motoco seat best of all aftermarket BMW seat.
When I were young,I thought that seat was BMW genuine part.
Because it is well designed like genuine.
What is like genuine? The edge of lower line has flare surrounding seat.
Motoco seat fits well the big fuel tank shape.
How do you think ?

HONDA CB400SuperFour 1992
HONDA CB400SuperFour is reasonable at used bikes market.
Because large number of CB400SuperFour had been sold.
Its capacity and durability are good enough for entry riders.
Body size is not as big as CB1100SF and CB1300SF.
Why not do you buy used CB400SuperFour and paint it like above?
You do not need to change muffler and suspension.
Just paint it!

new Kawasaki Z250
250cc displacement is small?
I do not think so for commute and run downtown.
I think Ninja 250 most cool than HONDA's and YAMAHA's 250cc.
KAWASAKI has released non-fairing Z250 street fighter a few days ago.
These days KAWASAKI motorcycle are cool design.
Because the design team manager is moved from MAZDA who designed MX-5 Miata.

HONDA CB1300super four
Is it your type ?
Cafe racer will not be interested in it.
Why?
It is modern European style ?
I think design really Japanese design.
Beautiful fairing and red and white color body combination is admirable.
I prefer to CB400Super four.
AU user can buy them but other countries ..... unknown.

Red Ram Motorcycle's R100RS cafe racer
Red Ram built R100RS cafe racer as shown on photos.
Which is mono suspension.
Battery moved to back of engine and air filter was removed as CR carburetor assembled.
Front section is from Kawasaki bike's parts.
Seat is "NITOROHEADS" cafe racer seat.
Seat frame was remade for this seat to fit seat bottom line.
Headlight is small meter build in case.
I think NITROHEADS seat is good seat but it is not good to BMW big tank.
Tank is too big for seat volume. Because builder replaced with vintage small headlight.
Why did not they choose Toaster tank ? If so,it became perfect.

MOTOCO seat on BMW R80 1989
This single seat is MOTOCO single seat for airhead.
Perfect shape for air head big tank.
It is well designed to fit tank shape.
It is look like BMW genuine single seat.
Why? Seat lower edge has flare like stock bike.
