Ed Newton, Art Hero 2

We're on a black and white art roll.

Another by Newt. In my book, he's The King of Line Art! I love that the whole ad was hand drawn with only the photos of parts and body copy dropped in. Even the name of the shop is hand lettered. You'll never see an ad done that way today.

2009 Triumph Street Triple R

Just posted the following motorcycle video up on www.YouTube.com and www.inter-bike.co.uk of the 2009 Triumph Street Triple R at the 2008 Carole Nash International Motorcycle and Scooter Show.

This is the uprated version of the standard Street Triple with fully adjustable front and rear suspension, Nissin 4-piston radial front calipers and radial master cylinder. The upside down forks are anodised black and it has Magura tapered aluminium handlebars. Enjoy!

Ride safe.
