    Input/opinions on me committing sacrilege/starting new project

    So, I've got this '95 Ducati 900SS/CR (oddly enough, the "Cafe Racer" model with the short fairing) that is my beloved old ride that I figured I'd have forever, blah, blah, blah... BUT, now that I somehow aged without noticing it, I find it very uncomfortable to ride, to the point that I never...

    My cage-roadster

    Yeah, yeah, I've already heard all the gay references, but truth be told, this is the most fun car I've ever owned (and please see my Mustang thread if you think I have no idea what fun is! ;) ) This one's got a fair amount of work done to it, nothing radical that would take away from...

    Advice for drilling fiberglass seat?

    I'm about to make a bigger hole in the tail of my fiberglass seat for a new, larger tail light - is there a particular type of hole saw I should be using? All the various brands I saw at the hardware store only listed as being for wood, metal or plastic, nothing else. The teeth on them seemed...

    Tail light question - 2 wires vs. 3 wires

    OK, so it's going to be pretty clear that I'm no electrician here: I just got a new tail light that I like better than the dinky one originally mounted at the bike's cafe transformation, and I just realized that the new one only has two wires, while the first one has three: one for tail light...

    My Mustangs

    After seeing jdub's '65, I couldn't resist tossing my Mustangs in here, too: My oldest, dearest (and most basic!) - The '66: The '70 Grabber 302 (368 rwhp - a beast): Lining up to lap California (Auto Club) Speedway with my local Mustang Club: The '73 Mach 1 351 Cleveland Cobra Jet:

    Anybody make a vintage leather jacket w/ armor?

    I'd really like to get a more vintage looking leather jacket - I'm talking more the late '60s or '70s sporty/cafe racer style, maybe with stripes, rather than the Marlon Brando look here - to use when riding the cafe bike, but none that I've found yet have the elbow/shoulder/back armor that I...

    Show me your tail light and license plate mount ideas/solutions.

    I've been looking at the tiny tail light and axle-mounted/sideways/bent license plate set-up I've got now - that I liked so much at first, now maybe not so much - and have thinking about changing things up. Care to show me what you've got, to inspire me to make some changes??? 8)

    "Modern" tire recommendation - '76 CB550

    I'm thinking about swapping to a modern tread tire on my 550. I'm not all that confident in the Chen Shings that came with the bike, or old style treads in general, and my impression is that a new-type tire would be an improvement overall. I've heard references to Avon Roadriders, Dunlop D404s...
