A great deal of blood and sweat went into restoring this bike. It sat for over 30 years in a warehouse. I purchased it from the original owner with 2400mi on it. Currently at 17,900 miles. Used as a commuter bike. Highway miles. I live in the desert southwest, dry climate. I'm selling because I bought a 2014 CB1100.

Back in the day, the All Japan 500cc Championship at Tsukuba

Fri, 24 Jun 2011

This ‘you tube’ gem sent to me recently brought back some funny memories from the scary but incredibly exciting days of 500cc two stroke racing. This particular race was the final round of the All Japan 500cc Championship at Tsukuba Circuit where I enjoyed a head to head battle with national hero Tadahiko Taira. Yamaha’s favourite son at the time, ‘tie wrap’ as we liked to call him, was taller and better looking than most Japanese riders (maybe a war baby?) and went on to win nearly everything in Japan during his career.

Tested: Dual Clutch Transmission

Been blasting all around the UK on my Crosstourer DCT this summer. The bike is mega in a Range Rovery-posh and grunty kind of a way. But it’s that engine and gearbox that transcend the normal into new realms of brilliance. I’ve been doing my best not to bore people too much about DCT but it’s hard.

Ashley Fiolek Featured in Vogue Magazine

Thu, 22 Mar 2012

We can’t say for sure but this likely a first: a motocross racer featured in Vogue magazine. Fact-checking aside, we’re proud to report three-time Women’s Motocross Champion Ashley Fiolek will be the subject of a four-page feature in the upcoming April issue of the noted fashion magazine. The feature looks at how Fiolek finds success on the track while facing the challenge of being deaf in a sport where hearing is important.
