5 Best Cafe Racers You Can Buy

When I think of the best cafe racers, I usually think of old bikes that can be transformed into cafe racers, but many motorcycle manufacturers have adopted the cafe-style onto their new bikes. You now don’t have to customize a machine to get that cafe racer look. You can buy it from the factory.
