Raleigh area bike photos...

Joe · Oct 31, 2010

I thought we should have a photo section here since we now have our own area. Lets see your rides! The current fleet, past rides, projects etc...

To lead it off:

1975 CB500T

1998 Moto Guzzi Centauro

1984 SP1000

You read my mind Joe, but I did not want to seem corny? I guess corny minds think alike, LOL
Here are my scoots.
My 1973 Yamaha TX650 (my favorite)

My 1982 Yamaha XJ750RJ SECA (my fastest) I've since modified the bike more, so it doesn't quite look like this any more.

1973 CB450 (next years project)

And this is my son's 1971 SL350 him and I are working on. (This one will take a while)

I figure some action shots are not a bad thing.....

Here is one of him on my SP...

Me on the Centauro...

Sucky shot of the BS 359 GTR cafe project....

Told you my photography sucked!

I really like that Bridgestone Scot. very different.

Here is a couple shots of me goofing off on my driveshaft 82 SECA

Wheelie practice, hey.

Yeah, the BS is an unusual bike. 350 CC two stroke with a rotary valve set up. Direct oil injection. Six speed rotary shift pattern. I have a high pipe to put on that one, and I am working on the bars at the moment. All the wiring is internal to the bars... Makes is a bit tricky to pull a clubman through!

... and a great article to go along with it: http://www.motorbyte.com/MMM/pages/cafe/cafe7_99.htm

Check out the stock seat pan - it just cries out for a cafe job!

Awesome - that means you can ride a different one down to the local Meet Up every month! Now the decision becomes which to choose..... ???

Which are your favorites?
