A TZ750 in an flattracker in an SR500 Frame? Hoooly Shhhhieteee…

Rotary Val… err… correction… ROTARY ENGINE Norton Racebike

Corrected by an alert reader. Thanks Justin! You know I actually knew that but I’m such a 2-stroke junkie that I had rotary valve on the brain… LOL

Another fine Virago Cafe Racer…

I havn’t exactly made it a secret that I think these are fooking cool. Here’s another fine example with some build pics. I found this over at the always interesting www.CafeRacer.Ca

The Before pic…

Sa this BMW cafe over at Ottonero…

Even if you can’t speak the language you’ll know what he’s “saying”… Check him out every day

I’m totally freaking speechless on this one

This is a copy from an Advnture Rider thread I stumbled across. Now this is some wild freaking stuff. Backyard V8… errr….Choppers? Customs? Judge for yourself…

“I was passing this guys place last spring in AZ. and the TIRE caught my eye…had to go back and check it out.
I had a business card from the guy but missplaced it….He has a little cafe a few miles out of Globe AZ. on the mtn. pass. Has a shop adjacent to the little cafe…real nice guy. He is big and bad ass enough to ride these brutes! He builds them from scratch, obviously….Here’s a few more pics. of some other bikes he’s done and doing…..He’s started building bikes in the 60’s. He had a photo of a twin V-8 bike he built in the 70’s.“


Big Block Chev.
has some sort of 2-speed automatic transmission…..

Small block chev. in this one…..59 caddy tail lights

wouldn’t want to slip off the seat…………..


This had a chev. 383 stroker motor…..building for a client……


Work in progress……

no front brake….probably wouldn’t matter……

Tularis Video! Maybe the coolest 2 stroke ever built.

I’ve personally seen this bike run at Daytona when it was just completed. It was entered to do some “Parade laps” in what was supposed to be a mellow few laps by “Past Champions”. Well he whacked that bike wide open around the high banks and was just whailing it. The sound was unbelievable but sadly it had to be cut short as the carbon fiber fuel tank had developed a small crack and was leaking fuel so unfortunately he had to cut it short. This was around 2000 or 2001 and the bikes performance and potential was nothing short of jaw dropping.
