when I wuz back in the states last year, I noticed that Madison Avenue had discovered cafe racers. There were two advertisements on TV that used cafe bikes, one from a pharmaceutical company and one selling wimin's cosmetics.
While I think it's a good thing that motorcyclists aren't being portrayed by knuckle-dragging neanderthals, another part of me wants my niche to remain off the radar

Tell ya what I've been noticing on TV. Classic old cafe style leather jackets seem to be making their way into advertisements and TV shows.
Tim Allen had on what appeared to be a vintage diamond-quilt sticthed Hein Gericke jacket.
Some other NCIS type of show too, two of the actors had on vintage cafe leather.
Hang on to them if you got them still, might be making a fashion comeback and you know what that does to used market prices.
