Marcin & Marcin from Ratbikes did an awesome job on this Honda CB350 Café Racer, so we kept a close eye on them. They took this BMW R65 LS a part and turned it into a great custom ride. It’s hard to recognize the original ride in this one, and we see a lot of Indian and Harley-like design. The list of mods is thorough:

  • front suspension Springer WLA modified shortened and strictured
  • frame modified (70%)
  • engine lifted
  • modified differential
  • modified gearbox
  • Mikuni VM38 carbs
  • R60/6 wheel
  • Honda CB50 fuel tank
  • R71 brake and clutch levers
  • Avon Speedmaster MXII tires
  • Brooks seat
  • Motogadget speedo
  • Lithium battery
  • And al lot of new parts
