The Thruxton Fairing - Handcrafted Excellence
We've been selling this fairing for less than a year now, but that was enough to make it one of the best selling fairings in the shop.
People love the sleek look of it, a nice balance of modern and retro vibes, and of course the fact that they get a handcrafted, unique piece of art. Not to mention that it's considerably cheaper than Triumph's original fairing made in plastic.
The Thruxton fairing sits now on bikes in many parts of the world, but we wanted to share with you 2 bikes that stand out. One is a Street Cup from Japan built by Hideki Ohtani, the other a Thruxton 900 by Beniamino Finocchiaro from Italy. Incidentally, both are professional photographers and both built stunning bikes which are getting a lot of positive recognition online.
If you're interested in getting this fairing for your bike (available for the air cooled Bonneville, the Street Twin/Street Cup and the new T100), or other custom made parts, please visit our website:

Kawasaki W650 - A Swiss Cafe Racer
Moto Center Karle in Zurich, Switzerland has realized this stunning cafe racer with parts from us at Omega Racer, namely the fairing and the tank. The guys are patiently waiting for better and warmer days to take it out for a spin a to take better pictures in its natural habitat, the Alps!
Maybe we shouldn't say it, but let's hope they don't sell it too quickly then! ;-)
The bike is now for sale for those who live in Switzerland and are in need for speed.

Drop-Dead Gorgeous Racer from Germany
Omega reader Thomas Grad sent us pictures of his latest project, a Triumph T150v, which he truly transformed into a piece of art on two wheels. I've spent a lot of time admiring the many details on this bike and can only imagine how many hours of work it must have taken to build it.
Here is what Thomas has to say about it:
2 years ago I bought this T150v in the near of Munich from a collector of historical bikes and cars.
The bike has already been in two German Magazines in a Vintage-Motorbike-Competition. At this time it was in original condition.
Because of its wonderful shape and powerful engine I decided to start a Caferacer-Project.
By the way: the engine has got a complete revision by LP Williams in England the former team leader of the Triumph Racing Team)
The complete electric was substituted against the Motogadget mUnit, mLock, the Chronoclassic digital multi-purpose instrument and Kellermann turn signal lights.
The clip-ons, handle-grips, headlamp and the brake-fluid-reservoir are from LSL. The clutch- and brake-lever are Syntho-line from ABM.The Caferacer seat cowl, fender, fuel-, oil-tank and the footrests are made of aluminium (handmade) - as well as the leather seat and tank-strip.
Hope you like it
Tom
Yes Tom, we do!

Thomas ordered a custom 'Elders' helmet from us to match with his new creation. Pretty cool I think.

NEWSBIT: Royal Enfield Going Cafe
Royal Enfield just unveiled their new models for 2012 and the one we at Omega-Racer love the most is the Thunderbird 500, cafe version. The original Thunderbird is a rather ordinary, if not boring, cruiser. This cafe racer though, makes up for its lame brother, tenfold.
It won't blow your mind with extreme performance, but it just looks so good, it's impossible not to like. I know I would want one!
Here is the official R.E. website.

Bike Of The Week #21
Here's an interesting HD cafe racer. Looks good but I would like to see 2 tires of the same size....
This bike, built by DP Customs, is based on a 1980 Harley Sportster IronHead.
