Juiced: The Coolest Electric Cafe Racer You'll Ever See
There are plenty of people out there that love to strip down an old motorcycle and convert into their own custom creation. But the number of DIY electric motorcycle builders, well, they're few and far between.
But that doesn't mean that there aren't some amazing custom made electric motorcycles out there. Ed Fargo created one of those machines. This is the "Juice" Cafe Racer.
It used to be a 1978 Honda CB750, but it shed a few pounds (the exhaust and gas engine) got some new batteries, and is now one of the coolest electric cafe racers that you'll ever see.
Most electric motorcycles (at least the homemade versions) look primitive, despite the advanced technology that drives them. But Ed Fargo, the creator of the "Juice" Cafe Racer, was able to give his motorcycle a sleek look that should impress classic cafe fans.
But the aesthetics are hardly the most impressive thing about Juice. This Cafe Racer was built for drag racing and with a current top speed of 102.5 mph, Juice would make its "Ton Up" ancestors proud.

By James LeFanu The once-unimaginable prospect of a smoke-free society beckons, and already the ban in pubs and restaurants and other public places seems as uncontroversial as the drink-driving law or the compulsory wearing of motorcycle helmets.

Side shot of main assembly of knee pads to start my DIY Dog Helmet project with.
Another side shot of the knee pads. I assume they are for hockey. You can actually see the stitching of the pad to the side of the hockey guard. The blue area at the left end has a pad which is great to use as a strap to keep the helmet on the dog. I'll add some velcro to it and have it swen into...
The outer shell was removed to reveal this pad and knee piece. I cut the stitches to remove this pad from the outside shell.
This was the main set of pads I purchased at a thrift store for $5.00 a pair. I asspume they are hockey knee pads, but I am no real sports fan, so I am not for sure. The padding is held in place by heavy thread that is stitched into holes in the plastic pad. They were easy to remove with a good...
