Plymouth 36's great Honda

While going trough some caferacer forums I came across these pictures. I think plymouth's done a very, very good job. He made a great choice by giving the bike a patina paintjob instead of a shiny new one. You can see more pics of his build here
Goodbusy!! (loosely translated from a Dutch expression ;))

DBBP's modern view on a caferacer

I'm not a big fan of most modern bikes. The simple design and mechanics on an old bike is just so much classier than most new, computer aided, designs. Simple is almost always better..... But this computer design by DBBP just looks great.

Today's caferacer



A Dutch Ducati:

The joy of motorbikes part I

These pictures really show the joy motorcycling can give you. It's a cliché, but a picture does say more than a thousend words. Look at them, would any of these pic have been nearly as cool if that had a car instead of a motorbike in them?

Jacqui van Ham



Jacqui van Ham from America rides the world on her vintage BMW. You can see the photo's en read the stories of her journeys on het website

your attention please....


I started this blog to keep people who are interested posted on the progress on my BMW caferacer and the XV920 I'm building with a friend.  To make this blog more attractive I decided to post pictures and stories of other subjects aswell (not nessecarily caferacers). If you would like your story, bike or photo's here (or if you have suggestions), feel free to mail me.

mail

It is my intention to place only stories and foto's that in some way stand above others, that have an air of quality. I'm trying the same for the sites I've linked to, so if you have a spare minute, I can really recommend you to click on a few of them.

Enjoy the blog!
