Dimitri Coste

Always on the move we have however managed to lure Dimitri Coste for the duration of our Weekend and in particular our exciting art exhibition . For those who don't know Dimitri, this talented individual has like so many been hugely influenced during his formative years and family surroundings. Dirt bikes, BMX, photography and journalism were always a part of his natural environment.

Stateside, Dimitri's Triumph sits waiting for the next competition, with past successes in the Catalina Grand Prix and the Pikes Hill International hill climb. His passion for Van's foot wear has led to him being an Ambassador for the company, Dimitri lives life to the full.

His work is his passion...

Greetings from Indonesia 2

.


Indonesia is a fantastic attic for "old Brit Irons" , and Mochamed likes to restore various models from his favourite brand : Norton.
While several months earlier, I asked him if he could send me a Norton single for a good rate, he answered that taxes are so expensive that you can't afford to import them. What a good way to preserve your capital...

this is my latest project...norton dominator 1957 99 (UNKNOCK DOWN), original featherbed frame, roadholder front end and armstrong shocks for rear end. I bought this one from an old timer guy who loves norton too..but the condition was very sad it was not a bike...but parts, frame, front end, petrol tank,swing arm, engine and gearbox were remaining...the rest was gone...the previous owner sold the bike part by part...Lets say I had to re-bulid the bike part by part...for the engine i replaced the original with a 750 atlas engine...for the bar i used an American style ( Market). i thing thats all

by the way thats a damn dare devil triumph ....
