What do you expect when Roland Sands builds a Harley for MotoX-Freestyler Travis Pastrana and his Competition Skater wife Lyn-Z? Well, something light and... sporty. Glad to see that Roland jumped over his shadow and built a Sporty which does not just sum up the Sportster-part he's selling. (Found at RolandSands)

Classy V-Rod
The V-Rod has a nice engine from a performance perspective. But the big radiator and weird intake make it hard to customize and... look good. Wonder-Bikes succeeded, giving the ugly V-Rod a classy CaféRacer touch (Found at Silodrome)

Caffed Big Block
A nice combination of Sportster-lines with a BigBlock. Nice fabrication skills though (Found at CroCustoms)

Stealth Yamaha
Usually I don't post Choppers or Cruisers here but this bike is sick as sh*t. As far as I can see, it has a 1700 or 1900 Yamaha V-Twin, dual knob tyres(!), a girder fork, gatling exhaust and it looks like the ride, Batman really should use (Found at TheNewCafeRacerSociety)

Bol d'Or Caféracer
Finally it's done! Today I completed my '81 Honda CB 750 Bol d'Or Caféracer. You say "a biker's work is never done" but I always have a clear picture of my bikes in mind and when I reached that, I only do minor stuff and leave it as is. This bike won't undergo major changes anymore.
Major upgrades were:
- Shaved rear with custom glasfibre rear and seat
- Matteblack paintjob with hand painted ("sharpie") skull-theme and vintage seventies Honda-badges
- Lowered frontend with clip-on handlebar, turnsignals and crappy mirrors
- Cleaned up electrics with selfmade mini-battery on swingarm
- All-in-one instrument with electronic speedo/tach and small headlight with a grille
- Megaphone exhaust
- SevenFifty-brakecylinder and reinforced clutch
- A few zipties, a bit of tape, bolts and stuff here and there ;-)

One bad, bad XR
If I'd have to buy a new bike today, it would be the XR. And I would mod it somehow this way. Great build (More at ShawSpeedAndCustom)

Custom Bonneville
An interesting Caféracer. Less traditional but more sporty and fighteresque with actual upgrades like brakes and monoshock (More at BikeExif)

BMW R75/6 CaféRacer
There are a bunch of old Beemer CaféRacers around and most of them don't really kick (in my eyes). But this one is just plain beautiful (More at BikeEXIF)

Neat Sporty
Love that skinny frame and details like the combined oil/gastank. Nice paintjob as well (Found at RocketGarage)

Oh lala! Beautiful 750!
Very nice built. Too much engineering for my taste and not enough retro for a stylish ride but very beautiful. (Found at RocketGarage)

Pushing the limit for performance Sportys
Avanzare by Asterisk Customs from Japan. Japanese just build the best US-bikes... (Found at RolandSands)

Terrifying twin engined bike
Stumbled across this and I have to say that the styling is definitely unique. 2.7l capacity and 160hp ain't bad either (Found at Silodrome)
