    That looks nice, seen a lot of stripped back bikes but that is very tasteful

    Someones in for alot of fun this Summer. Is it a CRK bike ? Do they weld the seat subframe on or is it bolted on ?

    Looking good, so what's with the rear frame, very Norton featherbed looking :)

    yep agree with darkman (why wouldn't I ) very Norton featherbed,
    I would also imagine seat frame is welded on as looking at the rest of it seems very very neat frame welding indeed, great job all round, Very nice find Koko 55.:D:D On top of that looks like its ganna be real fun :eek::eek:o_O

    Well thanks everyone. It started life as a Sprint 885,and has a crk frame,that's bolted on.The kit comprises of rearsubframe,seatunit,rearsets,headlight,hugger,chainguard,battery relocation bracket,undertray,fueltank,and numberplate bracket. It's a very neat kit,I think it costs about 2grand. IMG-20200126-WA0004-2.jpg

    A good write up on these in classic m/cycle mechanics from a few years back.
    Sorry the pics not great, I can scan the article later if anyone is interested

    Same as they all said
    Like the orange stripe with the green. A home build presumably as it’s CRK?

    Very nice, very basic, just ‘simples’ the way I like it.

    I like that very tasteful also practical and as mentioned great colour, an interesting project in the background with the white tank, care to explain that particular machine

    Very nice. CRK are based on the Isle of wight and also do cafe racer kits for the Honda CX500. The owner, Ian is really helpful if you ever need advice. (Helped me with stator problems on my custom build CX). :cool:
