WTH? You didn’t even talk about the actual fast bikes when the big 4 took over the street sport bike world with the ninja, gsxr, etc… Or the Busa!
Road dog is now owned by SRK cycles. You can see it run and ride on the bikes and beards YouTube channel
I bet today, for the Y2K jet bike, the turbine could just be used to power rechargable batteries and an electric motor that compensates for the throttle lag. But then, I suppose the bike could be all electric with a small turbine powering a generator. LOL.
I look forward to getting one
Bikes, bands, booze and broads.
U. Never covered the ultimate around the world durability machine.the 78 B M W
We ARE the only ones. We are they’re project. Our minds can’t help but think there’s others out there. Extraterrestrials created us. They’re among us. The moon is they’re home. They started here and went there. The pyramids are simply antennas that they used at one time. The artifacts we are finding now are simply their construction from years back. Stop using religion to prevent your common sense from telling you the truth.
Grew up in N Long Beach. On Artesia Blvd was the House of Handlebars in the 70’s. Every shape and style of handle bars to customize your motorcycle or they would make them for you.
I have a KLR 650 at my age Im just glad to still be riding and dont plan to stop no time soon.
If Vespas had automatic transmissions then they must have 3 brakes. And they dont.
Ok time to get the list together to put my VTX back together..
Properly. Even with the conversion kit from Voyager.
Why no mention of BMW?
The Marlin Brando pose is painted on the whole back side of my hometown theater.
Anyone else kinda miss the commercials during those breaks and returns? Like, I’m old now, I guess. About to turn 44 in March. I’m a father, and I haven’t even had cable television in years. I stare into this rectangle that fits into my hands.

I’m 67 now and this was a blast from my past. Got my first step through Honda 50 the summer between 5th and 6th grade. I had NUMEROUS step through, 50’s and 90’s a few small Yamahas and then a Hodaka Wombat. Now I ride an 850lb BMW K1200LT, my second one after accidently selling my first one. I miss all the little step throughs.
chopper chopper chopper, yay. sarcasm.
BMW?
Instead of double wrapping the bar, use gel pads under the wrap.
Kick it… Wick it… and Flick it… me and my 1994 Honda RC45 are going straight to jail velocity… (60 years worth of riding and racing}…

Larger carbs, expansion chambers,
NEW SOFT tires, and fix the oil pump!

I still had all seven!)
Tem acelerada na velinha, rolê pelo bairro, troca de resistência do chuveiro 🚿 e isso tudo fez o vídeo mais melancólico do canal. Força meu caro 👊👊👊
It’s 2024, I’m 36, and seeing this episode with Jay Leno is such a throwback for me. I loved this show while growing up.
My Wife and I both ride, she rides a Harley and dirt toys. I ride sport bikes, Harley’s, and in the dirt as well.
She is a bad influence on me!
