Ok so I have always loved the look of pre war motorbikes but they are generally expensive. Are they any replica kits out there? I did find this.

Coincidentally, I just came across this site the other day. Not sure if it's exactly what you're thinking about, but similar vibe.

I have one of these that I was recently thinking about putting on eBay if anyone is interested.

I don't know about kits but there are some folks who do nutty stuff with old mopeds...
