A very good PSA!


Food for thought.  For a second there I was like… WHAT?  Well done Public Service Announcement.

 

World enduro ralliy videos.


Great idea for the tracks to get them into an urban environment

And here’s some cool onboard perspective

Dumb but impressive all at the same time. Doing a bench press while doing a wheelie!

Barton 750! The Silver Dream Racer!


Chris Alty sent in these pics of a bike and brand that I’m a little ashamed to say I know very little about. Especially considering my love of two strokes and old movies. He’s also getting a restoration business off the ground and included some nice links to more information. Check it out.

Hi
I have just had a look at you site and thought i would send you some pics of my Barton 750 projects, i hope to have one out in August and my site is www.bartonphoenix.moonfruit.com
Regards Chris Alty

(and in a later e-mail)
Eric Buell bought the rights etc when Barton closed its doors, check out the film Silver Dream Racer as Barton Made the bike in the film, i hope to have one of mine on the track later this year.
Regards Chris

Here’s a nice clip from Silver Dream Racer to see the bike in action. Nice stuff actually. Especially for the times!

A great video cataloging the building of an awesome XS650 street tracker.


From Andreas Mikkelsen! This is no run of the mill build. The work that goes into this bike is amazing. The headlight is a work of art all by itself. And click through to check out the rest of the videos on Vimeo. Great stuff.

Hi mcpotd
A little surprised to see myself on your site 🙂 , thought I’d let you know that I also built the streetbike you can see in one of the other
videos made by Supermotard DK, this spring I want to have made some pro photos of the bike, ill
send them to you.

Keep up the good work on your cool site.

Bedst regards from daily reader, Andreas Mikkelsen

A nice video report from India on the new Royal Enfield Cafe Racer.


A huge thank you to Jonathan Garrish for the “field reporting” on this really nice ride. To be release in India for 2013. I’d be hugely surprised if it gets released with this level of components but it’s a hell of a pre-production / concept. No word if it will be coming to the us. Here’s a link to a decent report from January on Motorcycle USA

Hi,
I thought you might like this vid of a beautiful new Enfield cafe racer. I don’t know anything about the bike, except that in’s not a concept, but is some kind of pre-production prototype that *may* turn into reality in 2013. Woot!

A great chat with legendary Vincent tuner Big Sid Biberman.


Saw this over on the Good Spark Garage Video Library over on Vimeo where they have a lot of great stuff. Check em out.

Anyway I’m fascinated to hear his opinion comparing Vintage to modern Japanese to electric.

Stunters. Sometimes you just have to tip your hat.


I’m not big on the whole “Stunt” thing but you can’t deny the skillzzzz here. Nicely produced video too.

An oldie but a goodie.. Isle of Mann TT Video.


Just amazing footage and everyone survived the wrecks. It should load but if not click through. It’s worth it.

Video of John Renwick and Ed Wallbank testing Epimetheus, the 1665cc Vincent, on the dynamometer.


“probably about 180”  HP….

What a bike!  What a tuner!  What a Shop!!  And these gents are having a hell of a good time!

When it’s on the dyno, turn it up LOUD!
