So I am almost done with the GT550 and already on the prowl for another project. While surfing the local CL I find a project Aermacchi HD 125 for a decent-ish price. I kinda like the looks of the bike right off, but after a little research I find this...

Ok so I cannot find a decent set of VM28 Mikunis for my GT550 for a decent price anywhere. However I did find a set of VM34 carbs off a 600cc two-stroke snowmobile that look like they will do the job nicely. I have a couple issues fitting them however: First, I need to switch out the throttle...

I need a couple of scooters and a golf cart, all I am finding locally are new modern stuff or overpriced vintage stuff. These will be used by our drivers and crew guys to run about the paddock etc, and I know there is some cool stuff out there. Not looking for some pricey Vespa or similar...

Doubt anyone has noticed me missing the last few months :) But I have been a busy guy. The biggest and most important thing that has kept me busy has been the birth of my son Aidan on June 12. Its his first Chirstmas and we are all having a blast! Here are some pics I took today. Notice the cafe...

Ok so my HJC open-face I have had since 1990 is a little long in the tooth and in need of some attention, so its off to the bike shops to find something new and exciting. Off to Performance Cycle here in Denver, which has a HUGE variety of helmets in stock and I was able to try on several.Found...

Ok so I have been fighting this front brake squeel for a couple of weeks now and am not making headway. What I have done so far: Rebuilt the caliper twice Pulled and flushed the M/C, twice Cleaned and lubed the brake pivot arm First time I bled the brakes the fluid was contaminated, flushed...

Yeap, I need one to put on the bike while the one on the bike now is sent out to be ground and maybe drilled.

I know there are a ton of opinions out there, but I went to the bike store earlier today and the salesguy made me dizzy with tire options for the CB750. It LOOKS LIKE an Avon Roadrunner would suit my needs just fine, but I thought I would hold out for an opinion or two here. So what I am...

The Evo, somewhere on a twisty road up to Aspen- Porsche Racecar- Plastic windows lol- Naked RX-7 race car- its for rent! :) Front end- tubbed to take 10" wheels and allow full lock, stainless water and charge pipes, big turbo, not much Mazda left

For a whopping $250 bucks. Spent some time talking to the guy selling it. Seems that when he bought it he sent some buddys just to look at it, and they just went ahead and bought it. It wasnt running, but he rebuilt tyhe carbs and fiddled with the electricals until he was able to make it run...

Thanks to my very loving wife, it was possible recently to pick up a pair of Suzuki GT550 two-stroke triples. One is in really pristine shape other than a few pirated parts- lenses, chrome, etc are in almost new condition, tank is already stripped for paint, and the cases have no oxidation and...

As I mentioned in my introduction thread, a 1973 CB750 came my way. Its a little beat- dents in the tank, missing signals, etc. but starts, runs, and shifts like a new bike! Well, almost lol- the cam chain is a bit noisier than I would like and the valves may need adjusting, but it truly does...

I have been lurking around this site for awhile, just recently decided to get back into bikes after a short (2-3year) retirement. Past rides include Kawi Ninja 250R (back in like 85? I think, I was in high school), Ninja 500EX (not an "exciting" ride but stone reliable), CBR 600 F3, Suzuki...
