Interesting motorcycles, not XS650

[kshansen]

Kinda like the Vespa

Me too, actually I'm the one who put some miles on it the year. She's still trying to decide if she will keep it or try to sell it. Being ten years old and a little over 27,000 miles on it not sure how much it would bring.

It won't make us as cool as McQeen, but a very cool bike nonetheless

I wonder how many tons that weighs? Don’t drop it, you’d need a crane to right it.

I...I....I have no words....

"stupid bastard" and "absolute knob" spring to mind, just for starters.

Just because you can doesn't mean you should.

Look at the size of that crank! Look at all those weighted plugs! Honda NS750 flat tracker crank.

I witnessed the Callender Cover bike 'JPdevol board tracker tribute" in action in the Ozarks. Stunning bike. I am still in awe. However that modestly longer wheel base still made u-turns in the parking lot very much "pre planned"... This thing will need a truck stop.

I count two wheels.
Gotta qualify as a motorcycle....

Maybe I watched way too many cartoons growing up, but I always thought that Wilma Flintstone had a nice ass................

Even though I have never ridden it, I am quite infatuated with this motorcycle.

Want one? I have a 1988 and a 1992 I might be tempted to part with one. The 1992 even has a sidecar so it won't fall over!

That’s a kind offer. The machine pictured has Buell 2 plug heads and a non standard cam, making it a Sportster Sport. My daughter’s father-in-law may be sitting on one. For me to put anything more in my garage, something will have to leave.
