The good, the bad, and the ugly.

More emphasis on the bad and ugly.

My Ironhead.

I just found these. They were taken the day before I bought it, and I don't think I've ever posted them. The dude I purchased it from rode it into the barn in '95 and that's where it sat until we drug it out last fall.

The Sporty's of Expo Weekend.

Swagga.

30" bladez yo.

holler.

70.

Miles, not degrees. It was in the 30's and the need for speed was in my blood after this weekend. We're supposed to get 6-10" of the white stuff tomorrow, so it might be a few days before I can ride again.


Pay no mind to the rear fender, turn signal, tail light set up. That's only back on temporarily.

Home from Cinci.

The ride down sucked a fat one, but we made it. This is I-75. It was more of an ice rink than an interstate.




The Biltwell Bro-down was a BLAST! Big up's to Bill, McGoo, Mike, Josh, Kyle, Tyler, and everyone else that made it happen. It was definitely a success! I've never met so many good people in one place at one time. I feel like I already knew most of you from following your blogs, buying your parts, watching your builds, talking on forums, or whatever, but it was great to meet each and every one of you.






Congrats to Brad for winning the helmet raffle, and bringing some radness back to the streets of Detroit!




Oh yeah, there was a V-Twin expo too. I'll post some photos of that tomorrow.

Off to Cinci.

See ya there!

Or catch you on the flip side. I promise to take a lot of photos.

Crazy Tanks.

I was going ape shit donkey nuts blog hunting yesterday and came across these oddities. I don't remember the name of the site, but I found it on the biker blogs page and it wasn't in english. The noses on tank #1 look like they could cause some inner thigh damage.

Loooong.

The Selvedge Yard.

An excellent post on Mr. McQueen over there yesterday. Click here.

Yup, I bought one.

I think I'm gonna put one on all of my bikes. Rawr!

Bored.

So I snagged the header from Cheap Thrills and played with it a bit.

1983 Easyrider.

Hott.

Swag.

Actually, no, that's wrong. Swag stands for stuff we all get, and you got nothing. So there.

Thanks, Craig!

The Sno Runner.

My dad and a bunch of his buddies picked up a pile of these things back in the mid 80's. It was fun as hell for the first couple of snow falls, but after that was about as useless as dead unicorn. It would be perfect for this area... One of these years i'll have to haul it down here and get it running again.



More info here.

Just a reminder...

My tank is better than yours.

Chain of events.

Remember this guy from last week? Well, he's pissed.

Here he was looking all chalant with his badass Blood Falcon...

Then out of no where Hobbs shows up and steals his jacket and gloves in broad daylight!

Luckily, Rhonda was nearby with his back up. This photo was snapped seconds before he jumped on his Super Glide in hot pursuit.

(Thanks for the tip, Stone.)

fuckyeahghosttowns.

Cool blog I came across yesterday that has nothing to do with motorcycles.

For Sale.

I've got these silencers for vintage Triumph's sitting here that I'd like to get rid of. Brandy new in the boxes. They're part # 51-00820 over at British Only. Get them here for $100 shipped (lower 48), or from them for $275. Your call.


Comment or email me if you want them.

Happy February.

February. What a dumb word.

One of each.

Thanks!

60's rewind.

People actually used to participate in this sport. I believe it's call "bowling".

Special Edition.

Not bad.

99.8% of the time I hate the outcome of a customer puking accessories onto a new bike.


But I think this guy nailed it. The T100 tank was something we've done before, and the customer choosing to use black accessories as opposed to chrome was a good call. Some different mirrors and a different exhaust and we'd definitely have something here.
