The Batman's Incorrect Portrayal of His "Drifter Bike"

Hello everyone,

So it's been years since the movie has been out and I've noticed there's barely any official depictions/closeups about Bruce's actual Café Racer besides some toys and incorrect media shown in the first image below:

Unfortunately, the image shown is different from the one we see him ride in the movie, pre-Batbike, and due to this bothering me a lot, I thought I would correct this information in case anyone wanted to recreate their own "Drifter" Motorcycle from The Batman. The text is correct about Bruce's Motorcycle being a Honda CB750 frame (second image below), what I believe to be dated around the 70's.

I did notice some changes; like a DOHC motor from a 1980's Nighthawk CB 750SC in that the valve covers look identical. They do keep the same the 70's style spoked wheels with a dual rotor brake upgrade in the front. Also 70's style gas tank.
