haha. cafe bikes have become luxury products! im pretty sure whoever buys this bike isnt gonna ride it often or very hard. perhaps a second bike for a sunday ride to clear the head. i much prefer a bike with a few good leaks i can through around on a daily basis.

I think they are art. I think they are unique. These are in an emerging market of their own creation. Sure Cafe Racers have been around a long time and the bikes they restore have a lot of “old” to “restore”. 10k is an easy sell for someone who wants a custom cafe racer, knows that it’s unique and wants to do the ton. If you want a 2k – 3k bike to build out for a couple of grand, then buy the parts, the tools and DIY. From experience, it’s never that simple and 10k is reasonable.

Yes they are a ittle Pricey, however what was once ordinary 40 years ago has now become Art, and Nostalgic. Bottom line if they can Perform as well as they look its woth it.

Mingh, what’s not good? We Americans love to debate and haggle.. I admire people who stand by their friends, just as I would if someone wrongly accused mine. Dime City Cycles may have raving fans, but so does Chris and bike Exif. We can agree and we can disagree. We all love what we love don’t stifle that

time for some moderation Chris.
Some people seemed so much fans of them dime guys that you may wonder if it’s not them selves. In any case: not good for the high quality standards that gave bike exif such a large and well deserved fan base.
