- Have you noticed, with the exception of the guys in the States who post in their own time, the rest of us are a bunch of bloody insomniacs! You, Pud, me all posting after Midnight, what is wrong with us? And no, I don't do shifts or work nights, I got back at 7.30 last night from a 3-day trip round East Anglia and Kent, but still couldn't resist hitting the keys before wandering off to my pit!
I have noticed that now Paulie and we are posting again first thing in the morning. I am not a shift worker either (although I was for 25 years), I just don't seem to sleep all that much. | |

| Hi Stidds, Fantastic looking bike as said by several others, a real inspiration, so much so that it inspired me to go out and buy a 1976 CB500T. I am having difficulty in finding a seat I like, they seem to be either to small or to long!! I wondered if you made a mould of yours and if you had any intention of making any for sale I for one would be interested in buying one from you as it looks perfect with the CB500T tank you have. Cheers Jason (AKA KITPED) | |

| A quick update for you all, I was contacted on this site by Dutch who asked if I could submit some pictures and a write up to his excellent website www.thebikeshed.cc.Well after a lot of hard work by Dutch he has now put an article on my bike up on his site. http://thebikeshed.cc/2011/12/01/seans-first-cafe-build/Many thanks to Dutch, he has really made all of the blood and swearing (yes there was loads of both) worth it.

| Hey Sean.
The bike looks great. I hope to feature some more from this site (when there is room).
I've also just started an events calendar, so there's no reason for anyone to miss out on cafe/custom events like Rollerburn (2 weeks ago), or the Coupes Moto Legende.
Keep watching.
