Panhead Chopper




My old chopper. I inherited it years ago. Never knew really what to make of it. I laugh every time I see it. Somebody was really demented back in the day. Oh well, the thread needed a little humor to lighten things up.

Garage Tour

my buddy Don was by yesterday; talked him into a little garage tour. Headed over to east Shelby County. Didn't take much to get him to go. Time to see some cool bikes. I have pretty much open access to some nice garages.



Stange, weird, odd story. A guy I know brought this bike over for a major tune up probably 10 years ago. Kinda dissapeared. Saw him a couple of yeas ago. He asked about his bike, was it still there. Yeah, the tech asked what happened to you. Guess he just needs a place for free storage, just crazy.

American, German, British, Japanese


They all get along, their to old to care anymore. When your in a dry place with a roof over your head, be happy. '66' HD Shovel FL. Pretty nice. Perfect for a ride with Elvis in one of his movie's. Viva Los Vegas or Clambake or any of them.

Definately from another era. I would be more comfortable on a R75/5 or R90/6. It was mine many years ago, Glad I grew up an smelled the roses.

Parts, Parts, more Parts



Now where is that part. It's in a little brown cardboard box. Unless it's been moved.

After 33 years my little R50/5 is moving on to a new home. It will be lightly freshened up and will be properly taken of. Adios little buddy.

R90s



Probably one of the greatest superbike from the 70's. Probably one of the easiest to ride and enjoy. This one's a late '75 or a '76.

Ducati 750S


Another mid 70's super bike. Red and black, fast and pretty.

I'm all over the country and i see stuff like this everywhere. Barns, sheds, garages full of old bikes and motorcycle parts. Hopefully at some time all these pieces will find themselves back togather as good useful running motorcycles

Leo's Shop at his Home.



Leo you've really got something for these K75's. Perfect bike for Daytona, Barry. Small compact, watercooled. Don lends a hand. Don has put thousands of miles on K75's. He's a believer.

Bloodworth Motorcycles-BMW/Ducati Nashvi;;e,Tn.

Made a freight run up Gallatin,Tn.. Coming back I thought I would stop in and see what was new with David and his staff. A bunch; they had totally remodeled the place.



I like bikes with big round headlight buckets, up side down forks, fork boots, twin exhausts exiting on one side, so on and so forth. Apparently somebody else does too. Both these bikes are SOLD.

R1200gs blue frame



My new favorite bike as of yesterday is the GS in the hot blue frame. Blue is the new Red. Except when it comes to R9T's. I'm fickle; I can change on a dime.

Then I stumbled into this little beauty.

Can't help it, I'm a motorcycle Romeo.

Local enthusiests

I really likes a detailed map of good rising roads. I've done quite a few of these in middle and east Tn. Good stuff.

Somebody's out there riding.

R32, the latest and greatest in 1923.

Doonesbury comic; first one I've seen in years.

Some things never change. Good.
