"Caferacer boardtrack custom bobber super-cool"
Oh fuck off, just fuck off will ya?!
What wankstain would think that is cool?
who the hell would want to ride it?
It looks like it belongs on the wall of a hipster coffee house perhaps for the man bun and beard oil brigade to 'admire'
You never see anyone actually sitting on this shite do you?
cos you'd see you couldn't turn the bars without
hitting your knees.

I notice what looks like a shendingen 3-phase reg/rec on there under the seat. MZ 125s of that era had field coil generators and so use a switch type regulator with a seperate rectifier. So he's either done something very clever or very stupid... Which do we think it is?
Does have original fitment grey control cables though. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”

He's probably fitted one of several aftermarket stator assembly kits that are advertised for such manufacturers. Powerdynamo's 'Vape' being the most prolific (and expensive) producer of one of them.
Myself, the original stuffs all good, more than. A lot of people hype over the replacement systems but I think they're a waste of money. If you want contactless ignition there are many easy and cheap alternative ways to achieve this, even building yourself if you have the knowledge. ____________________ CBT: 12/06/10, Theory: 22/09/10, Module 1: 09/11/10, Module 2: 19/01/11

Pff..
https://www.carandclassic.com/auctions/1989-bmw-r100rt-walzwerk-schizzo-scrambler-evocation-43VMqn
All I take from this is that the real Schizzo must be a poper khunt and no mistake.. (illegal - no pillion footpegs, battery terminals in direct line of rear tyre shite - expect to travel 100yds in the rain, if the knobblies haven't thrown you off by then) etc.. etc..
Edit: there also doesn't apear to be much travel (or spring!) in a the rear shocker that looks like it's off a chinese scooter. ____________________ Now: A100, GT250A, XJ598, FZ750

I may be showing my ignorance here but if one wanted to go "off road" wouldn't you want the lightest bike possible to drag out of whatever ditch you end up in; 2-stokes popular for their great power-to-weight ratio for example ____________________ Husqvarna Vitpilen 401, Yamaha XSR700, Honda Rebel, Yamaha DT175, Suzuki SV650 (loan) Fazer 600, Keeway Superlight 125, 50cc turd scooter |

I'm done with CX's but in an idle moment looked at this one
as at least some twat hadnt butchered the rear frame
The blurb is utter bollox if not lies
"Be the envy of your friends with this stunning Honda CX500 cafe racer.
The bike boasts a powerful 498cc petrol engine with electric start and a manual transmission.
With only 1352 miles on the clock and an MOT expiration date of 2018,
I bet the original clocks would say different
This 1983 model is a perfect combination of vintage style and modern reliability.
Oh rly? how wonderful.
The silver naked type bike has a capacity of 375 to 524cc HUH?
and comes with a date of 1st registration of 19830221.
Hmm.. doubt it Whatever the reg its a pre 82 B cdi type motor.
This exceptional motorcycle has been meticulously maintained and customized to perfection.
What? are you joking? Shiny tank mebbe ,but it's shabby ang rusty elsewhere FFS
Don't miss out on the chance to own this unique and stylish Honda CX500 cafe racer.
Oh do fuck off !!
