It's Alive

There are a few bugs to sort out so I still haven't actually ridden it yet but it's good to at least hear it running again.

Sam Oppie Special

Another Sam Oppie Special - JDH Cutdown. So cool!

Screamin" Jay

Getting to ride with this kid was one of the absolute highlights of my last trip to ABQ. Damn good people.

Greasy Kulture

Over time I've become a pretty major Greasy Kulture magazine. First, I have been an unabashed magazine whore since preschool and a fan of motorcycle magazines damn near that long. As custom bike "fashion" ebs and flows Greasy Kulture has remained one of the only magazines I can habitually pick up that always has at least one bike I absolutely love. It's also about the only magazine of any type I still read cover-to-cover. That said I have spent the last few years piecing together the issues I missed before being an on going subscriber.

I finally have every issue but one. Issue #3. Please keep your eye open and if you find or have a copy you'd be willing to part with I'm interested.

Roosevelt Riot

Rioting in Roosevelt Park Albuquerque New Mexico June 1971.

Go Takamine Chout

It's funny how much wheels and tire can make or break a bike.

I recall seeing photos of Go Takamine's Choutat at Born Free 7 and not being all that blown away. I don't have anything against brat style bikes but I prefer a more traditional take on bikes like this Indian. For me the tiny headlight and MotoMag style wheels just don't fit the bike.

Just recently I spotted this take on the same bike making the rounds. It's one of my favorite bikes right now. I wouldn't change a thing. Ironically I didn't even realize it was the same bike even though it's really hardly changed.

Here's yet another take on the same bike.

Saint

What better way to sell the somewhat dull new 1973 Triumph 750cc Saint police rig at a trade show? Bikinis still work today. The model looks just a little like my daughter Sydney.

Ran When Parked

1984 Yamaha RZ350 Kenny Roberts Replica - Man I love these bikes. The classic Kenny paint scheme is the only way to go. Someday...
