Here’s a really big slideshow of all my Barber pics.


This is all the useable shots I have. I’ll probably comeback and re-post individual shots to spotlight certain individual bikes that merrit attention. Sorry about the quality on some of them . It’s not well lit for photography… which I’m sure is partly intentional. I probably had to exclude another 50 or so photos because my camera wasn’t fast enough and had a hard time adjusting to the conditions even with the flash. I’ll be better equipped next time. As a side not the museum assistants were a really knowledgeable group and as I was there on a slow day we had some really interesting chats.

Neil tells me that that’s an R6 front end on there. Really excellent build.

The new Rotor onboard camera system.


This vids been making the rounds today so i thought I’d share it here too. Really interesting camera angles. Might be tough on a roadracer with the extreme lean angles though.

I wish I’d had a better camera (or better lighting) for my visit to Barbers. In person, this bike was just jaw dropping.
