1961 Aermacchi 250 Cafe Racer
Here’s a really nicely customized 1961 Aermacchi 250cc bike that has been fully cafe racerized. Cool, one-off details abound. My favorite touches are the widened fuel tank with the fuel gauge placed in the side, and the pretty clean custom rear-sets. Overall, this is a beautiful bike.

Put the HD logo on it and the price goes up instantly..really beautiful bike. Would be an absolute blast to ride.
[…] price is too high for eBay? I’m not sure what it costs to build such an awesome bike as this (Click here to see previous post). However, I am sure it is quite a lot. It is an awesome bike, but I need some new material to blog […]
Is there a way to get in touch with the builder of this bike? I have a 1969 Aermacchi 350 with a later 73 head. The 6 volt system, charger and ignition system seem to be trouble prone areas. I would be highly interested in his updated electronic ignition and 12 volt system. I wonder if he/she sells kits to upgrade other Aermacchis?
Thanks,
Alan
