British Beauty

Freddie Cooper Triton Posted: 01 May 2012 10:30 AM PDT The definition of a cafe racer gets looser as the years go by. But this Triton, which will go on sale at the Wheels & Waves event in France in June, is as authentic as they come. Built in 1960, it’s a truly original English cafe racer—and one with a particularly interesting history. It’s the work of motorcycle racer Freddie Cooper, the first man to exceed 200 mph on English soil. Cooper was a racing contemporary of John Surtees, and he knew how to build bikes. Motorcycle News bet that he couldn’t build a race bike for £100, and lost the bet when Cooper presented the machine to one of its journalists to ride at the Isle of Man TT. Cooper built this Triton using contemporary parts, from the Miller light at the front to the Lucas tail light. The headlight brackets and triple trees are John Tickle, and the clip-ons are Manx. The megaphones are Dunstall, and the cylinder head is a sturdy T120 9-stud item. The rims are 18” Akront alloy. This Triton is owned by Neil Williams, who was a DJ at the Ace Cafe before moving to the South of France. But not for much longer. Williams is selling the bike, and it will go under the hammer at Wheels & Waves on 15 July. It’s expected to fetch between 7,000 and 9,000 Euros, which is $9,300 to $12,000. Seems like a very reasonable price, don’t you think? Images by Benoit Guerry. Find out more about Wheels & Waves, which is shaping up to be the year’s premier European motorcycle event, here.

Hillbilly Luck

Making waves in the marketing world kids... Promoting a major bike rally is no short order, from small town  bureaucracy to the fair police it would seem that nothing could ever get done. However, with the focus and attention to detail by a few key players and a little hillbilly luck, I do believe SturgisFest will be an epic adventure this year!

The GS

I started working on my GS650 that I acquired from my buddy Jack at Crusty Old Biker. I have been dragging my feet getting started because I am not used to this type of project... What I mean is it doesn't need any mechanical miracles, the damn thing runs perfect! I just have to get some of the style changed over from my Midwest buddies Ozark Mountain roots to something just a little more suited to my SoCal upbringing. I am definitely going to keep with the Military theme because it seems like the right thing to do.
