Rockers Revenge

For all of you out there who remember Mods & Rockers in the 60’s.

Saw this beauty at Buckfastleigh Steam Train Station.

A great example of a real Café Racer.

Triton.
The engine is a 1958 Triumph T110, nicely nestled in a 1955 Norton Featherbed frame.

Hand Held capture.

Hope you like it.
Thanks for looking.
