Cafe Racers of the 1970s: Machines, Riders and Lifestyle: A Pictorial Review
$19.99
The 1970s was the era of the cafe racer in its second phase, that of the specialist manufacturers. Certain mainstream marques such as Ducati, Moto Guzzi, Laverda and Yamaha also catered for this emerging market by producing production factory cafe racers such as the 900SS (Ducati), Le Mans (Guzzi), Mongich (Laverda) and RD Series (Yamaha). Famed motorcycle author Mick Walker graphically recreates the era of the cafe racers. Numerous contemporary photos are featured, with captions explaining the history and technical features of the machines and describing the men who made and rode them.
