Hey guys, I'm about to start my first cafe racer build, however, i'm torn between two bikes. I started off with my mind set that i'm going to use a 1976 CB750 as a platform, until I came across a 1981 BMW R65. I can get the CB750 this weekend for $1250 and the R65 for $1750. The bmw has over 40,000 miles and i'm not sure about the Honda. They both are in running condition and neither of them really need much. ( the front brake on the Honda needs to be replaced). I'm reaching out to you guys for your expert opinions here because I honestly don't know to much about either bike. Any help with pros/cons and just any information would be great!
Thanks in advance!
