Cafe Racers: Speed, Style, and TonUp Culture,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
A photographic chronology of some of the fastest, most stylish, and most individualized bikes in motorcycling history. Originally used as a slur against riders who used hoppedup motorcycles to travel from one transport caf to another, caf racer describes a bike genre that first became popular in 1960s British rocker subculture although the motorcycles were also common in Italy, France, and other European countries. The rebellious rockandroll counterculture is what first inspired these fast, personalized, and distinctive bikes, with their owners often racing down public roads in excess of 100 miles per hour ('ton up' in British slang), leading to their public branding as 'tonup boys.' Caf Racers traces caf racer motorcycles from their origins in the midtwentieth century all the way into modern times, where the style has made a recent comeback in North America and Europe alike, through the museumquality portraiture of top motorcycle photographer Michael Lichter and the text of motorcycle culture expert Paul d'Orlans. Chronologically illustrated with fascinating historical photography, the book travels through the numerous evermorphing and unique eras of these nimble, lean, light, and headturning machines. Caf Racers visually celebrates a motorcycle riding culture as complex as the vast array of bikes within it.
