I'm not too keen on the Cafe Racer look for an SS either.

Then if you were talking about my Monster I can only run away in shame...

I am not keen on the headlight fairing its a bit like queen Alien out of the film

I like Cafe racer style as in the trad kind.

I also like the stripped back SS on Ducutters ... now who is in big trouble.

So......no it isn't.

I'm no expert, but that ss frame looks much deeper than the monster item, so I guess it may be a bit more rigid...?
The swingarm suits it too, though a tubular trellis item might suit it even more, and there's no progressive linkage in the rear suspension.
But, though I hate to admit it to such shallowness, its the looks of the engine in that frame that works for me, rather than the techy details.
Now that IS wrong.

Ok. I'll book you in.
Good timing, should be warmer and less salt around by then, so might show up on the monster.
