wow, incredible skills on building those bikes. Just amazing.

How about conceptual recipes? As in meant more for giggles and thought more than yummy time sharing. Here is a fail proof (if fail proof means that you will prove that muffins can fail and win at the same time) recipe for Art School Muffins. You may have seen the tiny pic for posters that...

A bike worth worshiping for a month just to see if I really do have mental super powers (like my mom says i do) and can focus enough occular effort to transport that beautiful rolling shine to mechanical mastery through the interweb and onto my crummy east van front sidewalk, here it goes...

This thread is really interesting, I like the chance to see different interests of the people on the forum. Surprising and inspiring. I have not been on the site for long but still surprised by what each person does outside of their pursuit of bikes, all you usually get to go on is an avatar, a...

Thanks Gyi2os, I have not put the bike in the build forum as I am not a builders as yet, more of idea machine that then has to try and get others into the scheme for now. The bike is mostly finished and will be posting new pics within the month but the bike with a little history as is is in the...

Vancouver here, East Van. Also one time crew member in the East Van Yaht club (very chic, back yard builders of leaky boats).

Messed up last post will try agian, anyway great work! I like the decisions you are making about piecing things together and fully support the mini seat hump idea. like it. The soft tail suspension arrangment is fantastic, and hurts my head to try and understand. Looking forward to seeing...

sorry about the doubling of the videos, I think it is because I did not use the youtube insert link button on the forum page. will do next time. If too annoying I can repost.

Actually my mistake, the pics of my 550 are over in the Show 'n' Shine, members rides section.

Hey there, like the gold frame in particular, nice looking ride. Lucky to have an orginal with such low km. One minor issue for me is the mock Norton paint scheme though, just my opinion. The Honda's have there own design, appeal, and history, no need to take after a Norton (which is also a...

I dont' have a picture but I have short video of a run along the docks in Vancouver. Wish I had an external mic to get good sound quality but that is something for later I supose. The bike is based on an 87 R80. I would like to give a shout out to Miob, really liike your BMW, turned out...

Hi guys, thought I would put up some pics of a bike that I had for a few months until last summer. It is a 1976 Honda cb550 that was heavily worked over by a vintage race rider and builder in the Vancouver area. When I bought it he agreed to modify much of the bike to the image I had in my...

Not sure if I have hit the magical 'ton' or not, no speedo. But I would guess that between the speed tears, the apocalyptic sound of the engine and the grin on my face that could have split a coconut, I would guesss that I have been close. Also I far as I can remeber a stock 87 BMW R80 is...

I would go with #1 with this bar set, and with #2 if you put on drops. Mangonotforget.
