Italian Moto Major 350cc prototype. The round black rings in the wheels are rubber and act as the suspension. Deemed too expensive to produce, this is the only example;

My first Indain with an 80 inch Bonneville lump.
Wish I had that today...

R69S w Indian made Globe. That thing was like riding wet spaghetti.
If you look close, you can see the top edge of a cast.

Hey Ernie! Do you do requests? Got any pics of a Scott? Arguably the forerunner of the RD 350. Besides, I like the name...

Mike owns my favorite Triumph model.

You mean the Flying Squirrel?
Let me finish here so I don't get lost, then I'll search my mental files.
Tell the truth- I didn't know the Squerril was a 2-stroke.

earl's Franken Guzzi. It looks different every time I see it, but it always ticks like a Swiss watch.

Did I post this already?

Showing off some of my favorite pin-stripers work; Mark Pteres. More to come.
This is the front fender on my last R67/2;

BMW R7; thought for many many years to be just a rumor, until fairly recently it was found in boxes. Too inovative even for BMW- it, too, was deemded way to expensive to produce.

More of my last R67/2;

By the time I finished it, for some reason, I hated it. Never did THAT before. Damn- it sure sounded nice as the new owner rode it away...

A friends Gold Star- and the inspiration for me to put an aluminium tank on my Enfield. I'm an ass.

Another one of my favorite bikes; Cushman Eagle with a V-twin / belt drive conversion. The guy who did this was real young, and I think too smart. he died a year and 1/2 ago. A real shame.
BTW- this barge is FAST-
