Interesting motorcycles, not XS650

We went out and got my father an early birthday gift! We we’re originally gonna get him the 2026 street rod but the kind people at thunder mountain convinced him on the 2025 street bob👀It’ll be his first NEW motorcycle since he was 18 in college😂

Very nice gift! Bike looks awesome! I see HD has "stolen" BMW's approach to tubeless tires on spoked rims.😊

Luvverly. Kinda nostalgic too. The KR75 puts me in mind of an incident at Netherdale Ind Estate near Galashiels. One of those random moments in life. I wuz about eighteen-nineteen so 1975-76. Can't remember why I was at the industrial estate but I saw one of the historic woollen mills was now trading as some sort of m/c business and they had this lime-green KR750 sitting on its paddock stand on the sidewalk. And as I stood looking in wonder at this fantastic machine, so unexpected it might almost have fallen from Heaven, one of the mechanics confirmed this was Mick Grant's racing bike, on which Mick had set an Isle of Man lap record at 109.82 mph on the two-stroke triple, smashing Mike Hailwood's old record which had stood for years. He told me they'd borrowed the bike to attract attention to the new garage. I told him that worked.
