I hope you guys had a great ridding season. Did anyone do a Gum Ball Rally of their own? I sold the black bike to a guy named Eric in CT. Anyway I now have a new project bike and will be working hard this winter to have it ready for next spring. The bike I am working on is a 1983 CB1100f. This...

I call my bike the dragon and my birth day is 8/8 so that is how I came up with it. However I know the restaurant it is very close to home, never eat there.

Thanks, yes this is not for everyone and a group idea is not cool. That would end badly. Lets see some personal best times form those that want to play.

This is my daily driver. 1997 TL1000s I bought it new in 97.

Over the holiday weekend I took another shot at my Rt62 course from Sterling Ma to Barre Ma. I turned onto Rt62 at 6:30am in Sterling Center. My new 2.5 inch Kerker exhaust baffle has really improved the feel and sound of this bike. I twisted my right hand and headed up the hill out of town...

Do you know why they are called Cafe Racers? It is not a safe sport, and never was. There are some folks into building bikes and showing them off at bike night. I built my to ride.

The engine cases , lower fork legs , front brake , rear brake cover and some other little bits where all chromed by the first owner. When you see this bike in person you can see the difference between chrome and polishing. Chrome is always much brighter.

I agree, it looks good, Benjie Cafe Racers has a similar design. I am sure it will work fine.

Like Dirty Harry says ( a mans got to know his limitations ) I am not trying to kill my self and I have been riding and racing for 30yrs. This is just a way to stay interested in your ride, or someone else's ride. I will take a 2nd shot at my Sterling to Barre run this weekend, If your up early...

My tank hides an oil tank and has a compartment lined with heat shield.

Again it is all chrome, so not much work requiered.

Depending on how long your ride is, you can just pre run it for milage. Once you have the exact milage, you just need a stop watch. To get avearge speed, I just use an online Average Speed Calculator, here is the link. http://www.machinehead-software.co.uk/bike/speed_distance_time_calc.html

This is not a cross country race like the movie, it is a short time trial I made up to keep my rides interesting. I time my self on an open road course to get my average speed, and I try to improve on that time. If any of you folks do this, please post your numbers here. Just got back from my...

Thanks, but most of it is chromed.

Back on the road

Yeah, now that would be fun Basement rat . Thanks Bobdot , I have lived in the same area for a long time, and ride on roads I grew up on. The 20 mile loop can be added two, but this is not about ridding with your friends, a Ghost ride may not be totally legal :) or for that matter safe. I mean...

Ok so I got board of looking at my finished Cafe Racer and just taking it to shows or the occasional bike night. So I decided to start riding it more ,on a loop about 20 miles, but I got board of that, so I started timing myself. I am calling it a Ghost Ride because this is not something I share...

Middle of MASS

Not selling I just got back the new engine. I had a full 836 engine build done by Mike R. This thing is going to run nice. New pics coming soon.

I am sure they are lighter than a stock set of spke wheels, but you can have a very light set of spoke wheels made with alloy rims.
