The Motorcycle Pic Thread

Must be some nice riding in your parts. I'd love to hit the eastern seaboard, but it's just so far to ride to for a short vacation. Maybe one day.... Any particular parts you can recommend for scenic touring?

I've decided to leave my touring bike in Arizona next winter, and fly down a few times. Beat these winter riding blues. :cool:

i ride local in my area, little mountains and straight stretches with fields. It is nice. yea cant beat going to AZ to do a little winter riding for sur e

It's nice to be in an area where this is a lot of diversity in the landscape. I've recently been exploring down into Washington State. You can go from coastal to mountains to arid in half a day. Here a few pics from my last trip Seattle-Spokane.

Cheers !

Nice styling on those. Good choice! Happy with it?

I don't find that my 750 limits me at all, but there seem to be very few touring bikes under 1100cc to pick from these days. (insurance costs here are horrendous over 900cc).


oh, right, this is supposed to be a pic thread. Here ya go!

Isle of Man - Race Film

I recently went to see a documentary called TT(3D) which is about the annual week long motorcycle race on the Isle of Man, going on since 1907. Great film!!!

Here's a few pics, including (for the ladies) a few of racer/mechanic hearththrob Guy Martin.

I liked the contrast of the old photo and the new but the motorbikes are both retro. Plus girl one's expression made me giggle :)

I love her expression. Bikes are nice too.

Mine isnt very retro...2000 Triumph Sprint ST

... and as much as I'm personally an ATGATT guy, a woman racing an old BMW boxer just gets me into 3rd gear that much quicker. :cool:

I love that old Norton. I used to have '72 Commando. I spent more time fixing it than i did riding it but she was a beaut.

Right with you on the cheekbones too.

What do you ride SJ?

I used to ride with a guy who had an Atlas. I couldn't even kick start that thing. lol

I have a '91 BMW K75RT, similar to this one, but with the full touring package. Great bike for long distance touring!

I'm addicted to the K-Series, and will trade it up this year for one of these. :D
