    2003 Aprilia RSV-R Trackbike with street parts included

    I bought this a couple years ago to get back into doing trackdays after 20 years. I’ve ridden it (novice group) maybe five times since then and have decided that for how often I can get out I’ll use one of my streetbikes instead. Michigan title in my name. 37xxx miles OZ forged aluminum wheels...

    When did the term "deadtail" start getting used?

    So I've heard the term "hardtail" for ages, in fact wihtout the term hard tail we probably wouoldn't have bikes called softails.

    Question about Acewell 2853 Construction + any dead units out there?

    Greetings, I'm trying to find out some details on how the shell of an Acewell 2835 is constructed. I'm assuming it is an aluminum housing. I'm also assuming the ribs are an external feature and not carried through to the inside surface? basically I want to shave the ribs down and would rather...

    1966 Ducati 250 Monza

    Modified stock seat (Ducati 160 Monza Jr)

    Ducatis from the mid 60s had a squared off style that I don't find all that attractive. One of my projects is a 1966 Ducati Monza Jr. I replaced all the square looking stuff with earlier rounded stuff - here's what I did with the seat. The stock seat pan shape I spent way too much time...

    New guy, here is my collection

    First, a '91 907ie I bought brand new and still own. It was on display in the Ducati tent at the '05 VMD at Mid Ohio. (the other two bikes aren't mine) Next Duc (there were other Japanese bikes that came and went) was a '95 900ss which I then sold to buy this in 2000. That bike made it...
