Deus Ex Machina and followers.

Remember in 90's ? They where all Cow Boys or Indians on theirs bikes. Then in the 2000, they where all, old school, rockabs, Bobbers and so...
Now they are Café RACERS. You see what am talking about.

Since a little 5 years, a new style has arrives in the world of BIKES BUILDERS. It do not even have a name. But all refers to DEUS EX MACHINA. This unprononcable name is hiding a bautifull vision of motorcycling. It took birth in Australia, then Bali, and California. Now spreading like a common brand, DEUS keeps their original spirits by producing very high quality and innovative motorcycles. 
But they are selling more than those unaffordable motorcycles. They sell dreams.
And DEUS EX MACHINA is doing it very good. 
As leader and inventor of this new café racer scene, they give inspiration to many atelier all around the world. And those atelier gave inspiration to numerous guys without much ideas.

Today, the movement is done. At least for me.I've seen  in motorcycles magazines, articles about guys auto declared INNOVATORS, working on poor quality modifications on their 125 cc or sometimes bigger models. 
Now magazines are made only for these gentle dreamers. So ok, . The natural selection will do its work. The posers will be identified. The Originals, will be recognized. 
Here is a very quick view on some of the sweetest bike from this scene.
