Cafe Racer

Triton = Norton + Triumph

 

Featherbed Norton frame + Triumph Engine

 

Café racer = clip-ons, rearsets, an elongated tank and usually a single humped seat.

 

I really like café racers - if you do too, please feel free to check out my "Café Racers" set on Flickr.

 

Sometimes you can take a motorbike into the studio, set the background to match the subject matter, line everything up perfectly and constantly fiddle about with the lighting until it looks ok. And other times you just put one hand in the air with your point and shoot compact - using ambient lighting - and hope for the best.
