Good looking bike. I hope you do not actually wear the Captain America helmet as it is likely 30 years old or more. Fiberglass helmets loose their composition with age and can be more dangerous than not wearing one at all. Please get a new helmet.

Love the bikes and even more that they are not just snapped in the driveway like my pictures, that is if my bikes make it out of the garage!

What is the white wall tire on this bike? I've been seeing these around and love the look.

I believe the tire on that bike is a Firestone Champion. You can buy them form Coker tire I think. However, I have also inquired here about them several times regarding info on them and what others have thought of them but have recieved few replies. I wonder if they would look right on a Cafe bike. I know I have seen that tire many times on old Harley's and vintage bikes.

Since you know how to take photos, could take a detail of how you installed your brake shaft actuator.
