Motorcycles
1929 Norton
I came across this great photograph whilst researching the recent piece on the Norton CS1, I couldn’t use it then but have since decided it deserves it’s own feature.
Evel Knievel – 19 Car Jump
Evel Knievel is a step beyond iconic.
1974 Honda CL360
This great little 1974 Honda CL360 Café Racer is another in the recent crop of outstanding motorcycles to pop up on eBay under the “vintage” tag, the current owner is also the builder and by the sounds of things, he’s gone all out and created an almost perfect around-town-belter.
On Any Sunday – Flat Track Racing
On Any Sunday is one of those films that you just have to have seen, and seen more than once, if you’re a motorcyclist. This is the 7:20 segment of the film that deals with AMA Flat-Track racers, some of the ballsiest humans this side of the NASA Gemini program…
Some Bikes Challenge Egos
This marketing poster from Triumph circa 1977 is a great example of how to turn your weakness into a product feature. Most if to all of the Japanese bikes of the era had electric starts, the Bonneville still used a kicker and this was the marketing departments play at selling it to the masses.
Norton CS1
The Norton CS1 is a veritable beast, this is the 1928 model, ’28 was the first year that Norton used the overhead cam 500cc engine that went on to become quite famous in it’s own right.
R100 Tracker by Fuel Bespoke Motorcycles
I have a deep love and long standing respect for BMW motorcycles. I’ve never actually owned one, but I’ll get around to picking one up someday. In the meantime, I’ll make do with ogling other people’s Beemers.
Yvonne Craig as Batgirl
Yvonne Craig was introduced as Batgirl in the final 1967-1968 season of the Batman TV Series, posters of her in full costume adorned the walls of countless millions of boys around the world.
Hardtail Airlines
I shudder to think what happened to this bike and rider on landing. I like to think that he landed it like a boss and came around for a second run, but I doubt it.
Triumph T120 by Deus Ex Machina
The Triumph T120 is a veritable beast of a motorcycle, the model was originally introduced back in 1959 and saw a remarkable lifespan of 16 years and innumerable model iterations.
WWII Motorcycle Jumping
I’ve heard rumours of balloon tires being used on WWII motorcycles in North Africa…
