How serendipitous is the web?
I just did a post on Triumph and Norton. Two days later I was introduced to Geoff’s Return of the Cafe Racers which focuses on such bike as the Norton Commando 961 and the Triumph Thruxton 900.
It is also the first time I had heard of the term cafe racers. What exactly is a cafe racer?
Hint: It is a type of motorcycle as well as a type of motorcyclist. Find out more from Wikipedia.




Hey Ken. Thanks for the mention. I hope you like the Blog. Im learning more and more about these bikes as I go. I just noticed that Norton has managed to sell all 100 of their Commando 961 SS motorcycles on offer. Maybe soon they will start gearing up for full production again?
