How to make a SR 400 STREET TRACKER step by step by Brat Style…

On the Japanese BikeBros web site, they publish reports about how custom shops build bikes. The first report is about a SR Street Tracker built by the famous Brat Style.

Cafe racer Dreams - De Madrid al cielo -

I love Madrid. I had so much fun and crazy parties in the Spanish capital. I think the sentence I used the most in Madrid was "Ponme dos cubatas, por favor". El Cubata (short form for Cubalibre) is a long drink made with dark rum and coke.

Ok, but that’s not the topic here. Sorry, I got sidetracked… ^_^

The purpose here was to talk about another great builder from Madrid (Spain) Cafe Racer Dreams. In my opinion their bikes are some kind of urban tracker racer inspired by the work done in Japan by Heiwa, Brat Style, Gravel Crew and some others but on bikes with bigger engines.

They seem to follow one philosophy: less is more. I love that.

Some of my favorites XS 650

The first two XS 650 have been built by Brat Style, Tokyo Japan. The first one is really perfect in my opinion. The second kick ass…

The last one has been built by Motoshop Tonouchi, Kiryu Japan. I love this bike...

よくできました (Yoku dekimashita)

XS 650 SE 1979 - still in progress

I got this XS 650 SE 3L1 (1979) long long long time ago in not too good condition but it worked, so I rode it like this one or two years.
Then I decided to make a Dirt Track with it, but I waited too long and I changed my mind. ^///^
Some years after, I discovered Brat Style from Tokyo. The first time I went to Tokyo I went to visit them and I got a seat. They are great guys, very nice and they do amazing stuff.
That’s when I decided to make it more like a Street Tracker. I cut some "useless" brackets from the frame and welded a small bracket for the back fender.
Again I waited too long, so now I don't know what I will do with it, maybe I changed my mind again… ^_^
