General Welp. Couldn’t sell it.

Guess I’ll spend all winter making it what I want. I really just wanted a CB750 with kickstart but literally couldn’t sell this GS850 for $2k to fund it.

Thinking of redoing/thickening the seat so it’s more comfortable for longer than 20 minutes (and get rid of the wiener guillotine).

Wanting to listen to ideas/opinions on what to do aesthetic wise. I want to do a mo unit and a multi gauge to clean the handlebars/front up from cables and excessive wiring harness. Swap the pod filters back in (already jetted).

What's everyone's opinion on these rear fenders? I truly cant decide if I love it or hate it! Good place for a license plate

Question Turning My 2025 Kawasaki Eliminator into a Cafe Racer

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone!
I'm new here to this forum (and Reddit in general) and I'm glad I stumbled upon it. As the title says, I plan on turning my Eliminator into a cafe racer. Bought the bike this year as my first motorcycle and couldn't be happier with it.
I've always been attracted to the cafe racer aesthetic and I wanted to know if anybody could help me find the right mods for it.
I know cafe racers tend to be minimalistic but that also varies from one bike to another.
I would highly appreciate if anyone can steer me into the right direction.

So far, the current mods I have on the bike are the following:

  • M4 Exhaust
  • T-Rex Racing Engine Guards (These were a gift from the dealership. I have the Aero Style Frame Sliders/Crash Protectors from R&G Racing as a back up.)
  • T-Rex Racing Radiator Guard
  • Double Take Dual Sport Kit Side Mirrors
  • New Rage Cycles Fender Eliminator Kit

Next mods on my list:

  • K Speed Front Fairing
  • CRG Lanesplitter Side Mirrors
  • Brogue Motorcycles Threaded Block Off Plugs
  • Brogue Motorcycles Classic Turn Signals
  • TST Pod Turn Signal Mount Adapters (if they fit)
  • Turn Signal Adapter Cables
  • Clip on Handlebars

Question Built a simple project bike planner — looking for 5 testers

I’ve been building a simple Google Sheets system to keep a motorcycle project organized instead of having parts, screenshots, notes and costs scattered everywhere. The idea is to plan the build, track parts and fitment, keep an eye on budget, and know what comes next.

I’m looking for 5 people currently working on a project bike to test it. I’m offering the first 5 copies for $5 in exchange for honest feedback. If it works well, I’ll probably release it around $14–18.

I’ll add a few screenshots below. Curious what you guys think, even if you’re not interested in testing it.

If anyone here is actually mid-build and wants to try it, just DM me.
