"There was just something that drew me to that bike, like a cop to a doughnut."

What would a café racer look like if it had been built in 1910 & instead of 1960? It’s a question that has been asked before but to my & knowledge, this is the first time someone has actually taken to the & workshop and produced such a mythical beast.

LC & Fabrications is a machine/vintage motorcycle shop in the rolling, green & foothills of Virginia. Owned and operated by Jeremy Cupp the focus is & on timeless craftsmanship and seriously handsome motorcycles. This & particular bike, the TT Deluxe, was loosely modelled on bikes of the & 1910s (Triumphs in particular) but features a 2006 Triumph Bonneville & engine and transmission. The chassis was hand-fabricated as was the & tank, the bike uses handmade Druid forks and a seat made by Jeremy and & his wife Lindsay.

If you take some time to carefully go over these & photos you’ll notice a staggering number of subtle touches, this sort & of build quality is reminiscent of builders like Falcon and Walt Siegel & (and there aren’t many builders who deserve a credit like that).

Notable & features of the build are that springer seat set up, beautifully & integrated leather kneepads on either side of the fuel tank, the & wonderful steampunk headlight and copper tubing used around the engine & and the two-tone paint job on the inside of the wheel rims.
