In my youth in England the ultimate café racer was a Triumph/Norton. Triumph 650cc engine in a Norton "Featherbed' frame with clip on bars.
I always wanted a 650 Norton Dominator, never got one and had to settle for a couple of 350cc BSA's. One of which was an ex factory trials bike, an early Gold Star. It had been chromed at the factory and must have been quite flashy at one time. It had very low gearing and only went to 60mph, but it had lots of grunt at low speeds, it was a rare bird. I saved it from a life of ignominy pulling a sidecar.
