Great Escape jump

On the subject of Steve McQueen, Gary Sideburn gave us the heads up on this re-enactment film. Its pretty cool and you get a good look at that McQueen Metisse replica in question...

Tell him he's Dreamin'

The 1966 Honda 305 Dream is a blast from the past. It was a legend of its time. Even Elvis rode one in a movie (and you thought he only rode under age girls). Heres some pics of a sweet yellow 305 scrambler. The ass of the bike looks a bit clunky to me. But hey some people like big butts...

Wrap it up... I'll take it

I just received some pics of my sr400 before it gets shipped out here. Looks like they have done a good job packing and wrapping. I'm sure there's a lot that can happen between Japan and Australia. I have heard some horror stories about cars being filled up with water or bikes that look like they have been dropped by forklifts! Anyway, it still looks great at this stage. 

Honda CB750 model

How cool is this Tamiya  CB750 racing model? To be honest I'm not a miniature model guy. I actually prefer to own the real thing. Nonetheless it's a beautiful 1:6th scale model. I would definitely buy one if my name was Ken and I wanted to impress a hottie named Barbie (although she probably won't fit on that racer seat)...

TW200 & TW225

The Japanese love their TW200 and TW225's and they love their accessories. And so do lots of other people out there judging by your comments. Heres a selection of some sweet TW225's mostly from japan except the Deus one. Love that Deus alloy tank...

Jason Lee's Cafe Racer

On the cover of the latest Cafe Racer mag is a pic of Jason Lee and his awesome 1966 Honda CB160. So sweet. It was made for him by the guys at Lossa Engineering. They have a cool website with loads of nice old honda cafe racers. If you want to subscribe to Cafe Racer Magazine click here. Its worth the cash and worth supporting....

Vintage hotties

I love vintage ads. When motorcycles were naked and woman were clothed. I wonder what happened to these girls? They are probably grandma's now telling the grandkids how they were once a hot Norton motorcycle model. Wait a minute... is that you Nana?

BANG BANG on the door honey...

I wish the prick that almost wiped me out on the weekend had seen this. Luckily I saw it coming. Do you think these ads make a difference? Hopefully some people take notice of them.

Parilla Thrilla

This is one beautiful motorcycle. Parilla motorcycles only made motorbikes for 18 years so they are quite rare. The story goes that Parilla Motorcycles was started after a young man in Italy saw a Norton Manx and was in awe. He bought one, took it apart and measured it. Then sold it and started making his 'Parilla' bikes based on the Manx. Enough of the history lesson, let's get back to drooling...
