Help identifying a jacket

[CFDOC]

I think this may be a Beck cafe racer 666 racing shirt. It has a lot of characteristics: single snap collar but 2 snap ends, bi-swing arms, the curved shape back panel, O-ring zipper pulls, felt pockets, vintage talon zippers. Thanks.

I think you're right. I just compared your pics to my Beck cafe racer...and they match. The collar tab, snaps, ring pulls, main zip, and pocket lining look exactly the same. Good score- Becks made some of the most beautiful vintage cafe racer jackets around.

thanks for the reply. Yea I had my suspicions after googling a lot of images. The jacket was relined and so the tag went with it. There area traces of the original lining; most of what is left looks to be black (and this is just on the trim) but there are slivers of a red-orange color so maybe that was the original lining.

Clarification- Mine is actually a Beck-Arnley.
It still has the original lining- black satin with a small repeated pattern of embossed criss-crossing. but no slivers of red orange. Also the main zip is a large tab Talon. The main zipper tape appears to be slightly brown although the jacket is black.
BTW what I love most about this jacket is the leather- it's very thick and has taken on a beautiful patina. And the fit on this Beck jacket really suits my body type.
It's been sitting in my closet for a while- I'll have to put it back in rotation now that the weather has cooled a bit here in town.
