Beautiful old school Moto Guzzi bobber with some “Von Dutch” roots.
From the Add:
One of a kind Falcone bob job that was once owned by the legendary Von Dutch. This bike was originally built by Von Dutch in the 1960’s and later sold to a Hollywood movie company. The bike was used in some biker exploitation film and eventually ended up with another legend, Mike Parti. Mike had the bike dissembled for years and in the early 1990’s decided to restore it. Mike kept the classic bobber look and added a few touches of his own.
As long as we’re kicking around with 2 strokes today. Here’s another beauty from Japan
Fantastic build from Japan! Thanks you sir! I love builds like this. All business.
Hello My name is Takeshi Goto,editor in chief of 2 stroke magazine in
Japan.There are so many cool two stroke bikes in your blog! I really
enjoyed them.attached photos are my RZ410.RD250LC frame with
RZ350 engine,TZ250 forks.wheels are TZ250 hubs with 17in rims.I put in
LA sleeve 410cc kit for Banshee and TZ replica pipes.65hp at rear
wheel,not so much but massive torque,
Stunner of a Yamaha custom RD400.
As a lot of regular readers may know, my first real love is old aircooled 2 strokes (see my original 2 Stroke Biker Blog). In the world of Yamaha RD’s this one is a real beauty. A perfect balance of traditional RD mods mixed with some great custom touches (those brakes in particular). I’m on an RZ and an H1 now but I really need to get back on an aircooled 400 again. Just something about them. Congrats to Damon on this beautiful ride.
One hell of garage video tour of a racing legend by our friend Murph.
Folks do yourselves a favor and make sure you stop by “Where the Hell is Murph” on a regular basis. He’s actually taking the rides and seeing the sights that a lot of us only daydream about and he’s doing a heck of a job sharing it with us. Here’s a video of his recent visit to Jim Moshers garage. Love it!
