One of World's Most Beautiful Cafe Racers: Style and Substance
By The Car Family – August 2011
Lossa engineering is putting together a small series of designer cafe racers that are showing a new direction in design from the big and bold to the crisp and clean look. Take a gander at the photo and check out the website to see what I feel is one of the most beautifully balanced cafe racers in existence.
The bike does not revolve around a huge engine that dominates the architecture, but on the classic, jewel like lines of the Honda 160 CB series from the 1960′s. The list of features, as can be expected from the price, is extensive. But it is the attention to detail that grabs the eye of the sophisticated rider. Check out the LED tail light, for example, or the gold chain.
I checked around the country with several builders of these types of vehicles and there was no doubt that the price was justified. Freeway legal, eager to please, and agile, this bike real attraction is in its lines.
Perhaps the future will be less about cartoonish OC styled thumpers and more about the beauty of more is less….Understated Elegance. We’ll buy it.
Jay LaRossa is the owner and builder and his work has been featured on the television series, Cafe Racer, as well as many periodicals.
When you see a police car on the side of the road, it should make you feel more safe.
So why doesn't it?
Across the United States, even the most careful, safe drivers on the road would probably admit to being nervous when they spot a police officer enforcing traffic laws. Instead of inspiring feelings of safety, our traffic laws are used to create fear. Can this ever change?
