A nice 1970's image. I find it interesting that the adult male is also wearing "flares". Where I come from he would have been considered an old guy trying to look young.

Fascinating stuff... at first I thought the photo was taken in the 1930s, then I noticed the boy is wearing bell bottoms!

Absolutely love this. Street photography at it's peak. "Oi, tinker. Fancy posing for a few minutes while I get set up and if you don't mind, put your best menacing face on?" . I could imagine doing that now with a couple of grands worth of stuff strapped to your back in the current climate?
"Black and Tans with captured motorcycle, Clonmel Street, Dublin" probably isn't

The guy with goggles is the despatch rider for the bike. Possibly a Triumph. When the WW1 started, recruted Despach riders had to bring their own bikes!

Great photograph. The street looks a little wide for Clonmel street or even Harcourt street for that matter. Could it be Dame street?

According to Wikipedia (so it must be true!), the RN plate is from the Preston area and the NC plate is from Manchester.
