Motorcycles BS Thread 2.0

Just picked up these Vintage bikes.

79 Yamaha DT250
79 Honda XL350
69 Honda CT "Trail" 70

I shipped the Trail 70 to a friend in CA.

 

2018 BMW R9T "Racer"

Perhaps the most uncomfortable bike I have ever owned, but she is pretty.

 

Sj makes sense lol.

 

I likely have “too many” but a recent garage shot of three of 14... two of those are scooters (which I love) two are little bikes for the grand kids. I have been paring down. It’s hard. Sold a Ducati 999 track bike but gained a vintage trials bike.

 

Those are sweet. I’m trying to get my monkey bike where I can use it reliably.

 

Big jersey group on facebook if your looking for places

 

The "new" gasoline is such junk. I can never stay ahead on carb cleans. As much as I love vintage bikes FI is almost a requirement now.

 

Anybody going to the Barber vintage festival this weekend?

 

I have been as a vendor the last 3 years, but decided not to go this year, it is very expensive to do that event.
Love the facility, love the event, but from a business aspect, I just couldn't justify it.

 

Hell yeah!

And congrats on the house and garage

 

I don't do that whole Facebook thing. Thanks for looking out tho

Wife and I have ridden up before and it's a great time but we're skipping this year. It's going to be a scorcher. We're lucky to only live 2 hours away from it. Maybe next year. Which vendor were you?

 

Do I want a Triumph again?

 

Yes you do!

 

I have gone most years, raced there one of the first years. We have several bikes out on track with our shocks. Great event!

 

Some nice lookin' shocks you guys have!

It's a really great event for sure. Mr. Barber has built a Mecca for Moto in my opinion. Blessed to have it in my home state close by.

 

My 2002 640 Adventure.

 

Why the stretch and “AT” tires?

That’s the nicest 9T I have seen. It has a look that reminds me of the R100s I owned in the early 80s. I did like that bike. To my eye, the tail sections are too abbreviated I’m old fashioned I guess, I like the lines of the bike to continue to the back of the rear tire.
