The Honda 1979 CBX was very much a straight six cylinder, along with DOHC, six carbs and 24 valves.

One bike that caught my attention was the recent Indian Scout model. Not a bad looking middleweight? cruiser and 100hp would shift it along nicely. No idea of ride or reliability. Here's a...

That particular ride I was heading to the beach to catch up with some mates surfing. Went to overtake a car on the Manawatu river bridge at the end of Fitzherbert ave and was already doing 70mph and...

cameronjackwhite.... Have you ever ridden a ducati diavel?... I think that could potentially be the bike for you going by what you would like to achieve on your Harley. Before you start spending big...

Got a mate with a warmed over big engined harley who wanted a drag with my crossplane R1 yammy. We lined up and he let rip.... I counted out 5 seconds then did the same. I passed him like he was...

Jesus I opened a can of worms here! I'm well aware of the pros and cons of most if not all bikes mentioned. I've done the jappa thing, even raced an rg150 at Manfield for a while in my earlier days...

WASH YOUR BLOODY MOUTH OUT. The fearsum 'shree point shree' is a capable beast which will propel any mooring chain at a ridiculous pace straight to the bottom of Davy Jones' locker. I had a...

I owned a few 2stroke road bikes. RD400, RZ250, RZ350 and then the RG500. Imagine the RZ350 with 40 more HP. That's what the RG was like. I saw a mint RG500 gamma (like the one I had) sell for USD30K...

Yep... had a cb750k2 at one stage with the ole 4-1 chasing horsepower. Then I made the mistake of test riding an rz350ypvs and had to have it . What a machine that was , more go than the big fours...

Everytime I got off my H1 at the end of a ride I knew I was alive!:omg: And that was 45 years ago. 'Eyes as wide as saucers' alive.

I dare say we have all had stupid ideas at times. My last one was a number of years ago on my 1997 yamaha r6. I won't go into detail but apparently I had been chased by this cop for ten minutes...

This is very close to what I did / am doing. I have a jap cruiser (XV1000) that I have had for nearly 30 years. Great fun to ride but I wanted more....I looked at what it would cost to "tart it up"...
