I love the look of this Triumph, I cant snag but I figured I would throw it out for anyone else interested, seems cheap. Ends tonight.

Aside from the low bars that is defiantly not a cafe bike. Bobber more likely. Price is nice, though.
Seat looks like crap. Zero effort there.
The curved struts in place of the shocks are sure to keep bending until they cause a crash.
What's up with the red foot pegs?

A nice bike ruined, and the current price reflects that.
Maybe my age is showing, but a hard tail with minimal seat suspension while getting peppered by rocks off both tyres just isn't appealing anymore....
Definitely more bobber than cafe, but I do have a really neat lithograph of a Norton Dominator cafe bike with that style seat, but it does have proper mud gaurds. It may have actually been from before the cafe racer era.
I would never, under any circumstances, ride a hard tail that isn't a true vintage bike.
It looks a lot like this, but with trimmed fenders, bigger brakes and a number plate on the side.
