What's wrong with drum brakes?  At least you'll get rid of that huge ugly hydraulic thing on the handlebar.  If you are building a retro cafe racer with clip-ons you really don't want a lot of clutter on the bars.

I dont know how to put pictures in.  Just type it in they will come up. THey only made them for about 2 years .  I just gave one away to a kid here in town .35000 miles on it. they where twins a copy of the triump. At the time suzuki was going to buy out triump. they had real good suspenion 4 1/2 in back single shock The most we drove in one day was 500 miles I gear then high would get about 65 miles to gallon. they set for 20 years after my wife died and I had other bikes

Ah... I Googled the GR-650 Tempter, and once I did I remembered them. Yes... A twin like the Triumph or Yamaha XS650. Kawasaki made a few vertical twin Triumph knock-offs too.
