Reader Ride. A Blue Jewel of a Ducati GTS900

Edward Hessel of Louisville, KY sends in this beautiful (and beautifully photographed) bike.

He Writes:
I am really enjoying the diversity of moto's on your site.
Please find attached a couple of my 78' 900GTS Ducati, thanks and keep up the non- conformity.

A non-conformist huh?  Thanks.  I like that.

Bimota DB2 Under the Shady Tree...

Very "Unusual" Triumph Street Tracker / Fighter / Whatever?

I keep looking at this bike and wondering why I kinda sorta like it. It's a very strange mix that that has me scratching my head.

5 knees and 3 elbows... Funny video.

Some nutty stuff here.

As long as we're visiting Daytona... Here's a nice XS650 Racer


By Request... The Jay Springsteen Harley Racebike

Had a request from the previous post to see more of the #9 harley in the background. I know I've posted this bike before but I don't get tired of looking at it.

By the way, the Google Search feature and the "word-cloud" really does work pretty well

Random Vintage Honda Racebike From Daytona last March

There's a lot of these I'm yet to post... at least I don't "think" I've posted this one yet...

Tasty Duck


Bob's Badass Bonneville...

Basic Bonneville turned street tracker with Honda Wheels and seriously upgraded suspension.  I've seen Bob ride this bike and she goes as good as she looks.  The bike's been on here before but this is a better and more recent picture from last May's Riding Into History where he was volunteering.

2nd UPDATE: Suddenly Street Legal! BWM Cafe / Former Racer.

Second Update.  Thanks once again to our very knowledgeable commentators (thanks Tony) I have been informed that this is a creation of Ritmo Sereno (maybe I should try reading the decals on the bikes).  A seriously drool-worthy Japanese base builder of custom European machines.  Here is a direct link to one of the bikes below.   I can't help you with the translation but the pictures speak for themselves.

Update:  A clarification.  As was pointed out in the comments I think it's possible that this is the same bike but not really likely.  They are similar enough to make for an interesting blog entry but probably different rides.  Probably the same builder.  That or they knew (of) each other.

Now it's a racebike....




Add lights and remove the pan and now it's a Cafe... or is it the other way around.   Stunning bike(s) either way.

NOT Sold in the U.S. Bikes We Don't "Get" Here in The U.S.

Over on Motorcycle Daily there's a good blurb today about a beautifully equipped Euro only V-Strom 650. The story covers the usual storyline about Americans and their love of cruisers etc... etc...

The sad fact of the matter is that we don't get them here because we really don't "get" them.

Damm Shame. Missing out on some great bikes that would do very well in Americas wide open spaces.

Exhibit "A":

Beautifully Sculpted Bodywork on this "Espresso" Honda Cafe..

From the Toronto Mods Vs Rockers... Thanks Jim...

Go and Pay Chalopy a Visit!

Chalopy has been knocking it out of the park lately and he has one post in particular  that is LOADED with great vintage pictures!! 


This is a very small taste

According To The Rumor Mill, Norton is going Racing!

...and not on a small scale either. They're talking MotoGP. Is it possible that the new Rotary has been developed to the point that it could compete in GP? Will the rules even allow for a rotary bike? If not GP can it race in WSB? This should be interesting. Turn up the volume LOUD!

Here are some vids of the new Rotax powered racebike being developed....



And of the original early 90's F1 Rotax bikes warming up.. "Filmed at Bob Mac memorial race meeting at East Fortune on 14/6/09"

Crazy Benelli Sei Cafe Racer.

I mean DAMM! That's like stuffing a big block in a Mini Cooper.
