Honda CB 400N ‘Shine’ Café Racer
by Zucconi Moto Design
.
This 1980 CB400N has been owned by Marcio Maidame’s family
for more than 15 years. he says
“It was my father's bike, and I ended up taking her for me.
Since I watched the movie 'Femme Fatale', I fell in love with the café-racer
bikes, and I ended up discovering that one of the most respected motorcycle
customizers of Brazil was based in my town (Sao Paulo - Brasil). So I met José
Zucconi and his son, Thiago Zucconi, at their garage and, after one year, we
completed the project.
The guys at Zucconi Moto
Design rebuilt the bike almost entirely. The gas tank was handmade by José
Zucconi, they remold the chassis, adapted the suspensions and brakes. The
chrome-nox painting was made by Liqueri Special Paintings. Once ready, because
of the intense brightness of the painting, we named the bike ‘Shine’ .”
