This Le Mans Moto Guzzi is quite easily one of the most famous Guzzi cafe racers in the world, it was released to the public last April to rapturous global applause and now, a year later, Matt has decided to list the bike for sale.
I’ve developed a bit of a fascination with some of the recent designs from watchmaker Bell & Ross, we featured their beautiful PW1 last month and this month I’ve decided to go with this, the new Bell & Ross WW2 Bomber Regulateur.
I’m a bit of a sucker for vintage motocross machines, they seem to be popping up less and less often so when a pristine example like this 1977 Suzuki RM370 crops up, I’m all over it.
I’m going through a bit of a tee buying frenzy in the lead up to summer, this beautiful and understated design by The Lovewright Co….

The Moto Guzzi based KaffeeMaschine 5 is one of those cafe racers that comes along every now and then and totally lights up the motosphere, KaffeeMaschine 5 has so far been featured on Pipeburn, Southsiders MC, Design Inspiration and The Cafe Racer Cult, not to mention a slew of other more obscure sites.

The Limit: Life and Death on the 1961 Grand Prix Circuit tells the story of Phil Hill, the first American to win a Formula 1 race and still remembered as one of the all time greats, it’s a blazing read and a solid page turner.

One of the only regrets of my life so far is that I haven’t spent enough time going sideways in the dirt on a motorcycle. This is something I am working towards rectifying.
This Harley Café Racer by Italian garage Passion 4 Custom is a great example of what can be achieved with a v-twin and a little patience, the style of the finished bike is a little reminiscent of Shinya Kimura’s work although it’s also quite distinctly Italian.
