Three of the best, name them and I will buy you a beer, just to make it easier one of them is Jay and look how close they are at the end of the race. Jay used to throw up before every single race meeting he entered into, he always got that nervous.


These bikes always look really handsome to me

Scooter racing, it's worth considering






Freddie, a master on 250, and 500

Now Ducati can build a beautiful bike, but they have designed some PC800's in their day too!!! This is perhaps the most awful looking bikes in the world afetr a PC800 that is, but then anything is beautiful compared to a PC800.


They say this is John Surtess, but I think that its mark Forsythe from performance Bikes

Cal Raybourn I was there that day sitting up on the grass bank at Pukekohe, I remember all the fuss and the cars going everywhere all heading over to the hairpin, and people jumping the horse track rails and running through the middle of the track to get there. Turned out to be a sad day.


Now, we are pretty involved in the cafe racing movement at the moment, and some people are building some pretty good things, but really I looked at this and thought to myself "self what a piece of shit", it means nothing, looks like nothing, is slow, wont handle, and evey time you use the thing it will make you filthy. Sorry shit is shit, cant dress that up.
And then I found this image of the bike, and I thought " actually it looks OK, so I'm wrong you can make shit smell and look nice". nah wait a minute..............actually it's still shit





I do like big headlights....


This is a thing.....


An Oxymoron a Laverda 24 hour bike
