had the privilege of riding one of those vincent 500's, loved how it fired every lamp post.

That Vincent single.. has a very Ducati jellybeanish looking tank on it..

Talked to a guy today, about Krugger winning the Builders World Championship.. he said when he realized he was in the top few. he quickly put on a Tshirt from the Canadian builders shop... said he got a lot of Inspiration from him....

pretty cool thing to do...IMO..

just remember.. Inspiration comes from many sources...

THIS BIKE BLOWS ME AWAYYYYYYY!!!!! It is a Cook customs called the "Rambler", check out the sideways Cb550 engine with a BMW trans. Found on the Kneeslider if you want to investigate. Holy wow.

i thought he called it the international... he won a build off with that bike... his style really gets me going

Here are a couple bikes from a classic bike swap meet that took place in Auburn, Ca last month.

I noticed it's propped up with a cooler...

how's it stay up when he stops at a light?

754 · « **Reply #5719 on:** August 20, 2010, 09:08:32 AM »

It stays up just fine. You can see the pivot in front of the trailer, it allows up and down movement. Ahead of that under the rack is the pivot, that allows, left and right movement.

You know how some sportbikes when bored do the tire-warming back and forth in thier lane? He was doing that , a few times just to show how good it handles...

The owner is a buddy of Old Scrambler's.. we were all at Bub Speed Trials last year. then rode to the Bonneville GP, in tooele..

Not sure if these have been posted before, but worth posting again...

oh, cool.
In the pic, it looked like a bungee cord was all that was holding it on there.
EDIT: I see now that the mount is big and chrome.

I tried posting a bigger version of the 750 with the trailer but the I guess the forum doesn't allow it, so here are a couple more bikes from that gathering
