Thomas’ Royal Enfield Bullet Cafe Racer: A new Royal Enfield Bullet modded to Café Racer. With upgraded suspension (fully adjustable Hyperpro schock) and this Bullet churns out 38 instead of 32bhp. Tank and other parts are aluminium and the overall weight was kept as low as possible. The rebuild was accomplished by Yves Pede from T-Factorbikes Belgium.
From gibsart:
Ilary Blasi may be Italian but she has the sense to choose a British bike as her steed. Not any British bike but the greatest Cafe Racer of them all, the mighty Norvin. The legendary Vincent engine wedded to the superlative Norton ‘Featherbed’ frame.

Quote “The machine was built by Bob Foster and Herbert Lewis, partners in the dealership Lewis, Ellis and Foster (LEF) of Watford. Work started in 1952 on a double knocker engine from drawings made by Herbert Lewis. It was built from scratch with the exception of a BTH magneto, a Norton oil pump, Triumph timing gears and a 1” GP carburettor. The bore and stroke is 55mm x 52.5mm. The camshaft and conrod with a plain end were made on site. The gearbox is 4 speed Albion racing. The frame is made from Accles and Pollock oval section tubing. The engine developed 13 bhp at about 9,000 rpm, and was capable of approximately 93mph.
A number of well known riders of the period rode the machine, including Jim Dakin, Eric Pantlin and Dave Chadwick. A number of good results were obtained at short circuits including Mallory Park, Thruxtion and Silverstone. The best result was 5th place at the 1956 TT with David Chadwick on board. The last outing was at Brooklands approximately two/three years ago.”
