motorcycles caused me strife

Kiya,

that bike you posted reminds me of this, thought you might like:

Seriously thinking of pulling the trigger on this bike.

1975 Ducati Condor A350

Would cost almost $700 to ship it to Texas.

[kiya]

This is essentially what i'm saving up for...

Check out the Buzz Rickson sticker on the tank.. so funny.

While in Japan last week i got in touch with the guys that built this.. I too can have one for $28k..

I seriously think this is what i'm saving up for..

Fuck.

[kiya]

Jimmy, please ship the bike to me and you can have anything you want from the store for a 12 month period.

Edit: Wait.. might be cheaper just buying the thing myself..

[BeauIXI]

Jimmy, that bike is amazing. Love the tank bags!

Here's my Honda CM400T.

The aluminum used to be probably five shades greyer.. I'm still polishing it up.

[kiya]

BeauIXI!

So odd.. I've got the same exact bike in red... 1980 CM400...

[BeauIXI]

That's awesome, Kiya, is yours the Homdamatic, or the standard? They're pretty good starter bikes.. Just enough power, but not so much that it goes off without you.

Plus you can't beat the style of a twin.

[Denim Phenom]

Kiya, 28K is a lot for a bike like that, especially one that only has an Evolution Harley motor in it. I'm sure that if you looked around at local shops or ones in Long Beach or the Huntington area, you could something for much less but the same style.

But then it's your money and i'm only giving advice.

[raWorkshop]

They're well built bikes no doubt but they wouldn't even have dropped their bikes so much if they'd chosen more appropriate models to begin with. Something like a highly modded KLR 650 would have been way better. On that note, you can get really tricked out KLR's used for dirt fucking cheap.

www.advrider.com for all that stuff.

Here's a stencil I made, it's the first motorcycle I ever owned, 74 Yamaha RD200

This was the first bike I ever had. Sold my paintball rig and the money burned a hole straight to eBay. Kept it illegally parked in a university garage, no helmet, no tags, no insurance, just fucking madness. Yamaha RD 200.

[BeauIXI]

Rrrringdingdingdingdingdingding!! RDs are crazy!

[hollowsleather]

For fans of older bikes, Google's new archive of Life Magazine photos has some nice shots:

...that evidently won't show up.

I assure you, they're awesome.

cant rep. but awesome link.

[kai-wun]

counting down the months till i pick up my 08/09 250R....

[raWorkshop]

Anybody ride or have advise about the Kawi Versys? I'm trying to decide between V-Strom and Versys for a graduation gift to me, just want a solid all-rounder that can do some touring too.

There are some cool old hells angels pictures from the 60's on Life

Would be nicer with different pipes

With different tires and black rims

[kiya]

That last bike is a nice one.. What shop is it from?

[octo]

http://www.brassballsbobbers.com/home.asp

From Them aslo

These guys have super nice bikes, especially the bobbers http://www.deus.com.au/#/bikes/

Drooooool

check out this Harley Sportster

[poopslush]

not really into the giant heavy bikes, I've been drooling over 60s-70s small displacement road racers and gp bikes. such as

50cc minarelli

69 jamathi

motom ss

etc

[Denim Phenom]

With different tires and black rims

That bike is going for the "rat rod" look so the color scheme is good. Adding black wheels would make it less interesting.

I'm not sure what kind of motor is in that bike but it looks like an Indian one because of the round cylinders. It could possibly be an S&S motor though i'm not too familiar with what they put out.

That bike could be made for around $12-13K.

You'll pay an arm and a leg for a bike from a shop.

[shut up alex]

i have been wondering when sufu will discover bratstyle... maybe if you guys get into it you could proxy me some parts for my xs650?

[dino might]

Bratstyle is nice, Dice covered them in their japan issue last year.

You know of http://www.mikesxs.com/ for xs650 parts, right?

[shut up alex]

doy. i spent what little xmas money i had left on mikes xs. one day when im finished with my bike ill post pics from start to finish. i got it for free with a seized motor, completely rusted and anything rubber was rock hard. bratsyle is a huge inspiration in building swing arm choppers though. i could totally see some rich kids on here all japed out with a brand new brat in the back ground of there waywt pics....im jealous.

[octo]

yeah, the seat on the link you posted is more of what i was going for on my bike. i found a used fiberglass seat pan/pad combo at an old race shop in the desert, so really i wanted to combine kind of a brat style flat tracker.

ill post pics when i get a chance, i have been lagging since the holidays...

[octo]

^^ Cool

I think it might possibly look nice on my bike
