They don’t call me ‘Terry the bastard’ for nothing.
So does changing the colour of the frame count as a mod?;)
How the feck can a SLEEPER be a fighter ???
Both at oposite sides of the scale… a fighter is all about the agresive stance and attitude…less is more.
A sleeper is self explanitory…wolf in sheeps clothing

I thought the definition was “a faired bike that has been thrown down the road by someone who couldn’t afford to replace the fairings.”
+1
So you must think my Bl*des a Fighter then ![]()

thats your interpretation, it still bigger engine too boost performance, does a astreetighter have to look a certain way, i think not. some will argue that a bike with clip ons aint a streetfighter too, i do not.

So would the 7/11 with plastics not be a Cafe Racer ala Triton / Tribsa / norvin etc?Or has the Cafe Racer Genre died out?
i believe cafe racer and the streetfighter are very close relatives.
even streetfighter mag reckon faired bikes sleepers etc are streetfighters, look at the book a couple of there blokes put out a few yrs with faired bikes mixed with dodges iriginal bike, even 2 strokes.
I cant see how any bike with clip-ons and/or a fairing can be called a fighter, more like a race replica. The Suzuki 7/11 or Honda 9/11 would fall into the sleeper bracket. IMHO the SF mags got it wrong printing slammed blinged out Busa’s and the like, surely these are drag bikes of a fashion and not fighters. The Factory fighter is just mass produced comercialization of a street cult. The streetfighter essence is simple…aggresion and performance on a wide barred nekid bikeMy B1216…this is not a fighter, more of a cafe racer

My 7/11…this is a fighter

I can see the Cafe Racer in your B1216. It has the spirit of the old “Ton Up” days… nice one mate:)If, however, you’d stuck drag flats on it instead of clip ons it would then fall into SF Category…No?So… Is it the bars that make a fighter?![]()

That’s confuddled me even further:DSo, When does a Bandit become a Fighter or a Cafe Racer? Its all getting hazier than before:D
different people have different interpretations thats why ya gonna have different bikes otherwise they will be all the same.
