Show us your motorcycles!

I know it ain't spectacular - but that is about as close as I'll ever get to having a chopper in this country. And a 1200cc bike wouldn't even fit on most roads around here.

A bike is a bike - and the ONLY way to travel. Happy New (Gregorian) Year.

Size is relative, looks like you're still the big dog on your block.

keep the rubber side down and enjoy!

Here are a few of my latest, a 1981 Yamaha XS650 Bobber.

VERY nice. Where did you get the frame?

True true. I drive along the beach and into the mountains - it's alot of fun and I can't believe I could have such a good time on a bike that cost less than an i-phone.
Check out my wordpress blog for pictures from road-trips.

A friend of mine makes the hardtails, and welds them onto the stock frame.

Now that's what I call a bike, and you are using it well too.

This is what I won on Sunday. To say I was surprised is an understatement. I arrived to pick up my motorcycle at a little after 5:00, I did not know the show was over, so I ran in to get my bike, when one of the club members said, "don't forget your trophy!" I did not think I would win against all the great looking bikes, let alone 2nd place, I would have been happy with 5th!

Wow, there are some really awesome looking bikes here, several I would love to own. Here is my vintage contribution, it's a 1940 Zündapp KS600 W. This was the fastest bike in the German military during the war, and one of the most popular with the troops.

outstanding Zundapp!!!

This was my main ride for many years, its a 1947 Indian Chief

I think I just fell in love..........................

I inherited this Stock 1987 1/2 Harley Davidson FLSTC from my wife. She is good to me! That was my favorite cap that blew off on the interstate. By the time I got back to it someone grabbed it first.

Not actually vintage, but here she is. This is Sophia, my TU250.

Neat. It's not all old Harleys and Indians. Enjoy it

 

[Stearmen]

I really like those TU250s! Suzuki got the styling just right on them. Now, if they would just do a 500cc version.

If only I had an old Norton, Triumph, or BSA like I really want, then I could really join in the fun.

I am left with little to say besides WOW

Be carefull what you wish for. I sold my 1951 BSA Goldstar, because it was always letting me down, I am customizing my 1979 Triumph bonneville because it backfired and caught on fire, (amazing what a minute of fire can do to a motorcycle,) and my 1973 Norton Commando is in peaces waiting it's turn! By the way, my 2011 Thruxton is ready to go, just push the button and it turns as many heads as any of my old bikes.

Well, I wouldn't complain about a new Scrambler or Moto Guzzi V7 Special as a daily rider.
