Ducati 900 GTS by Nick Huber
The Ducati 900 GTS is one of those motorcycles that sits very close to the top of most motorcycle obsessed gentleman’s wish lists.
Motorcycles
Nick’s Dyna by Kraus Motor Co.
This is one of those custom motorcycles that I can’t imagine anyone not liking. Dubbed “Nicks Dyna” by the team at Kraus Motor Co., the bike is a bridge across a few motorcycle-genres with elements of cruiser, sport bike and flat tracker all existing somewhere within the design.
1954 Ariel Square Four
The Ariel Square Four has one of the most handsome engines ever fitted to a motorcycle, it’s an air-cooled 4-cylinder unit with the pistons arranged into a square with 2 crankshafts geared to each other.
BSA Boating
I guess this is entry #1,767,876 in our ongoing series “Why Vintage Motorcycle Ads Were Better”.
Indian Railcar
This is one of those images that I know nothing about but love anyway. We seem to be looking at an Indian motorcycle that’s been converted to run a small one man railcar, probably used by an engineer to check lines.
Race Bike by Wolf Creative Customs
I love interesting engineering projects like this, it’s a race bike built by Wolf Creative Customs based out of Culver City.
Blonde Mud Racer
Some photos are just perfect. This one has the smile, the hair, the bike, the helmet, the mud and the boots. Love it.
Cherry Cafe Racer by Deus
Deus Ex Machina has a refreshingly heretical approach to cafe racer building, this bike is one of their latest creations and you can tell at a glance that it’s a signature, antipodean cafe belter.
The Pup by Old Empire Motorcycles
Old Empire Motorcycles is a brilliant little boutique garage based in Norfolk, England. They’re fairly new and this is their first publicly available custom motorcycle, it’s been dubbed “The Pup” in memory of the infamous WWI fighter plane, the Sopwith Pup.
Norton Model 30 Manx Racing Motorcycle
This is the 1952 Norton 500cc Model 30 Manx and this particular Manx has quite the personal history. It was shipped new to veteran Grand Prix…
Cafe Racer & The City by Fott
Cafe Racer & The City was directed and filmed by the talented Alexander Khudokon in 2011, I have a soft spot for well made videos like this although I always feel like they just need a script in order to be made into a feature film.
Ducati 750
Motorcycle advertising has changed a huge amount since the ’70s and ’80s. It used to be Girl-Bike-Logo and motorcycle sales were booming, in more recent times it’s become more technical and motorcycle sales have waned, I may be drawing an overly simplistic correlation-causation line in the sand here but I vote that we go back to the ads like this one.
