This is a current retro cult thing......

The fellows that spruced up their scooter were called "Mods". They added lights and mirrors and Racoon tails.

The fellows that did the Cafe' bike thing were called "Rockers". They took things off their bikes and tried to make them lighter and faster.

The British girls called suspenders what our American girls called garter belts. Either look good sitting on a motor bike. Kenny G (Remember "The Good Old Days")
