One of these days I'm going to have some spare change (yeah right) and I'm going to get myself a third Airhead. I'm going to install rearsets, clip-ons, a solo "cafe" seat, and make a nice looking cafe racer. Sort like this, but not red:

Great idea for a thread, Derek!

Isn't that Virgil Eling's Museum in Solvang, CA? (I haven't been there for years).

Like this, maybe?

Very nice! I'd probably go with an all black tank, but yeah - I like that one! I'd also have to get some leathers and one of those Davida "Classic Jet" helmets that anger people when they see you wear one on the cover of the "Owners News". :heh

This Norton is affordable....I am selling it cheap!

I know this is a model of a Norton Manx, I am interested!
How much?

What, no white silk scarf?:dunno

As the past owner of a similar helmet, goggles, and white silk scarf, I'm allowed to heckle from the peanut gallery!:p

i wish i could do the full up cafe to my airhead, but being a man who likes to camp, likes to ride long distances sometimes and has a 6'5" frame a cafe bmw can not be my only bike............someday though.:thumb
