Leader of The 59 Club dies

Only a few days since I wrote about the 59 club on this blog I have just heard that Father Bill Shergold died 2 days ago. He was one of the founders of the club. No doubt he will be missed by loads of rockers and bikers all over the world. RIP.

Colarado Norton Works

 

Colarado Norton Works (CNW) mission is to is to 're-build the finest Norton Commando motorcycles on the planet'. Judging by this amazing Norton Commando they are doing a damn good job. CNW spend over 250 hours on each custom motorcycle re-build, completely disassembling each Commando bike and re-building it from the ground up to create some of the most stunning and rideable British motorcycles ever built. View their gallery to see the amazing standard of work these guys strive for.

Not so Stupid

Stupid Crown has a unique name that matches their unique style. They are another Japanese Custom Shop producing some out of the ordinary bikes. The Honda Monkey sidecar pic is one of my favourites...

The 59 Club

The 59 Club played a major part in shaping the Rocker and Cafe Racer culture. I love these vintage pictures from the 59 club days. If you want to see more check out Graham Hulletts Photographic Collection . (Graham was the club leader from 1962 to 1970).

Shooting Starr

Just found this photographer called Tony Starr from Melbourne, Australia through Speed Junkies (which is a fresh blog). He is the proud owner of a 1973 Honda CB350. But it was his photography that got me really excited...

Berry Good

Heres some tasty rides from Berry Bads in Japan. I have been drooling on my keyboard looking at some of these bikes. Their blog is worth checking out as well. Lots of tech pics (love the fish pipe) and also some vids of them riding these beautiful machines.

Kickback Tokyo

Discovered this Japanese Custom Shop in Tokyo called Kick Back. They produce some really nice custom bikes. Like most Japanese shops they have loads of SR400's. Check website out for inspiration.
