From the One Motorcycle Show- Portland OR


Special Thanks to David Lawrence. And a nice touch with the lens by the way.

One smooth video.. 1961 Matchless G80 CS – I think I’m In Love. Spiritualized


Makes me want to go for a ride…

RC181 Replica using a 1970s CB400 frame and a CB550 motor!


I didn’t get a name of the builder in the E-mail (drop me a line please) and the photo’s are a little small for what I usually like to post but this is so cool I posted it anyway. Really interesting hybrid with build pics in the gallery.

70 mph mobility scooter! Yep! Just like it says…


Another brick added to the wall of AWESOME!

I’m slammed again this weekend (sorry) so here are three fantastic bikes in one post from Andy at Gunar Engineering in “sunny” England!.. Enjoy!


Here’s a few photos from sunny England.

Use ’em if they’re good enough, my apologies if they don’t pass muster. I’m an engineer not a photographer, and a big fan of your site.

The Moto Martin is one of my bikes, just had it’s n’th rebuild in my 20 year ownership.

The Harleys are mine and my wifes daily rides, pics taken in Italy last year.

The Triumph is a clients bike that I built last year.

Cheers,
Andy Smith

Sweet CB500TT “Double Overhead Cam”


Sorry… had to mis a few days of posting… Got trapped at work on a big project.  36 out of 48 gets a bit rough…  Anyway I did find some nice surprises in my inbox starting with this beauty.  You know, if Honda were to build another modern retro they could do a lot worse than looking to their own past for inspiration.

Thanks Much to Shannon Hayes for these great shots.

A really interesting “One Make” MZ250 racebike from the UK

Fantastic stuff. Is there an equivalent class to this stateside? Good affordable (or as affordable as racing can be I suppose) fun.
