Cafe racer Videos Thanks fore sharing Your MC photos. This is a bit off topic but i am intrested in motorcycles my self to . The cafe racer trend started in GBR in the early 60-tees. Rockers driving from pub to pub and meeting outside talking around there bikes , shicks , smooking and drinking beer. It got out of hand sometimes when rioting against the Mods the scooter intrested People. http://vimeo.com/tag:caferacer The Ace cafe started in Londen UK and has many visitors from all over the world. Many nations have ther own Ace cafe now. Have a look here ! http://www.acecafe.com/ My spesial attention goes to the Brough Superior SS100. There is a 2014 model redesigned aswell. Looks awsome. http://www.broughsuperiormotorcycles.com/ Martinius.
there is about 4 different stories about why theyre called cafe racers. my fav is the bikers would race from cafe to cafe and some old timer told them they were nothin but "cafe racers." there is also the theory theyd put a song on the juke box and then race around the block and try and be back before the song was over. all i know is i like culture back then and the bikes so i like riding a bike that everyone wants to talk about when i stop. dad just finished this, this week
Cafe racer ? Defenatly a cafe racer with clip-ons and racing seat. Black bomber With paralel twins model - cubics ? I did all the New wiring to and dont like the old fashion fuse Blocks. I am looking fore modern fuse boxes with covers to put in my truck , instead of these aftermarked onces . I dont really think these are safe . Any suggestion ? Martinius.
Skeeter From what I dimly remember of back then , your story is correct . I never understood why the fighting between Mods & Rockers , two wheels is two wheels , right ? . Either you like Motos or not .
what it boiled down to was the rockers were into riding and the mods were into gettin dressed up and fashion and riding scooters. but then they beat the crap out of each other so it was like gang wars. im a rocker
