Harley-Davidson Street 750 Cafe Racer
By Curated Content Editor

This Street 750 has gone through a heck of a transformation at the hands of Number 8 Wire Motorcycles.

It'd be cheaper to buy one used, crash it, take all the damaged parts off to make it rideable and rattle can it.

I think it looks pretty cool, way cooler than the stock version, but that weird "split" pipe is ugly.

I don't understand why folks go through all the labor and thought process changing the looks of a uninteresting boring two wheeled vehicle into an even more uninteresting boring two wheeled vehicle !!! It looks like a high school auto shop project !! The exhaust looks like it was fabricated in a first year apprentice welding class !!

More interesting than stock, but still a few slices short of a sandwich. Try again...

IMO- Ugly build. I've seen way better cafe racers that I'd like to have.

Let's see, no rear fender so you get mud streaks up your back, hunched-over riding position with your tail-end up in the air, doofus mufflers, rear-set pegs so that your knees scream murder, ugly bland paint. Oh yeah, there is so much to like... NOT.
