Cafe Racers: Speed, Style, and Ton-Up Culture
by Paul d'Orleans and Michael Lichter is a pho-
tographic chronology of café racers. Café racers
first became popular in 1960s British rocker
subculture, although the trend was happening
in Italy, France, and other European countries,
too. The book traces café-racer motorcycles
from their origins in the mid-twentieth century all
the way into modern times, where the style has
made a recent comeback in North America and
Europe alike.
