Description

Up for sale is a custom cafe racer based on a 1979 Yamaha XS1100.   The Yamaha XS1100 is one of the most desirable foundations for a muscle cafe racer.   Nick named "King Kong with Tux On" in it's day for its shear force but elegant style that dominated the road.   This is no entry cafe racer.   This is for those riders who want the power of today's bikes in a vintage shell.   This bike still competes with 1/4 mile times for many 600-750 track bikes (95HP and 11. 7s 1/4 mile stock!).   If you are looking at this bike. I don't need to tell you all of this.   You already know this is the ultimate in cafe racers. Twisted Dream Fabrication's passion is not to be a leader by flooding the market but rather to create the most unique bikes that have ever been sought after.   The care. detail. and professional quality put into this build speaks for itself.   TDF planned this build for years and it just took that long to find the right build-worthy XS1100.   This build was completed as close to period specific as possible minus the LED conversion and updated electronics.   A Creamsicle King Kong£  Oh yeah we build it and you could own it.   What a trophy of a bike.
