The new cult of the cafe racer in Canada and the USA, and to a lesser extent in Europe and Japan - is nothing less than gas powered, piston-driven, open-piped punk rock. It had to happen and its badass that it did.
I've looked at what the media, the government and the old men who run motorcycling have told me what to want and I have decided its crap. Fat tires are out people. So are chrome whore high dollar "custom" choppers.
Only problem I have is that social media turns DIY punk rock idealism into its antithesis and comes off as some type of pseudo-elitist fashion statement. STAY OFF FACEBOOK, you're a biker not a 12 yr old girl.
