CRD3 Cafe Racer is the latest Honda CB of the trilogy, which undoubtedly closes the circle of ‘the beginnings of Cafe Racer Dreams’ and gives the starting signal to a brand already consolidated.
CRD3 Cafe Racer was commissioned by Fernando de Otto who, as soon as he learned that this trilogy that was taking place, wanted to have one of them in his possession. He got into the project when it was already in progress and could only choose the colors. He wanted it to match a Ruby helmet that was a gift from his girlfriend. The helmet was dark green and had a golden line. So we painted the gas tank in the same green and the chassis in gold. Undoubtedly one of the most praised stylistic combinations.
It also has a handmade aluminum battery box, ignition key inserted in the tank, a simplified electrical system and “Choke” air control inserted in the tank.
