What looks to be a very early drum brake Honda CB450. I'm not sure I'd use the word 'vintage'. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/3277358485780226/?ref=search&referral_code=null&referral_story_type=post&tracking=browse_serp%3Aa897ee82-1980-4e1a-b947-97c9b0f37405

15-25cm forecast. A good day for lying down and avoiding.

"You stay away from my daughters. I polish my shotgun."

CBX was 1047ccs but we're splitting hairs. The frame left a lot to be desired (no front down tubes) so the steering head was unsupported except where it was bolted to the motor. I watched Mrazek come through 8/9/10 at Mosport and the wheels were never in line the whole time.

Frank Mrazek said much the same thing after one of his infamous get offs. "My riding was perfect, the tires were sh*t..." When he rode the CBX he said, "this thing handles like couch." I miss Frank.

Tony Russell, Ron Lefebvre, and a whole bunch of other great builders back in the day for sure.

To my knowledge there were only 3 complete KZ1000 S1s in Canada. Steve Dick, Rhys Howard and Reuben McMurter had them. Only 30 bikes in total were built for worldwide consumption. Lang Hindle had a bunch of factory kit parts on his KZ1000 MK2. Read Kevin Cameron's book on the early days of...

There most definitely was, a lot of racers would bump up to Superbike after running in Production. At one point Michel Mercier ran a Suzuki GS1150 they called The Bus. Frank Mrazek and Steve Dick rode Honda CBXs in Open Superbike.

At one point (1988 ?) a few of the Formula USA bikes showed up. Big money weekend, run what ya brung. That was quite a show.

As I recall (memory can be a little dim) here in Canada we ran Open Production and Open Superbike classes, Amateur and Pro- no displacement limit. Most of the front running Pros held to the 1025cc limit so they could race the same bikes in the U.S. But it was 50 years ago, and I can barely...

Somewhere there's a photo of Robby Mieklejohn positively ventilating the crankcases of his SOHC Honda 750/1000. Mike Crompton tuned, Weber carbs, chock-a-block full of RC Engineering parts. It was a total monster until suddenly it wasn't...

L&B started doing Art's bike after he showed up on his street ride and waxed the field in AM Superbike. After only a couple of races he was bumped up to pro. Rick Tomasic at Sports Afield 2 did Reuben's bikes after he got black numbers. Lang did pretty much all his own wrenching with a guy named...

There are a few listed there with fairly long vertical extensions. Mount it high enough and you could likely get away with it. But then you're creating a sail - a small sail but a sail nonetheless.

There seem to be a lot of choices, all based on having a 2" receiver. Fabricate that and away you go ? https://rackattack.com/hitch-bike-racks

But they'd look dandy in the glass case in the living room ?

The weekend of September 25-27 RACE Moto will be celebrating 50 years of motorcycle racing at Shannonville. Please spread the word to all the old racers to keep that date open. I just found out today from the organizers, details to follow as we get closer I'm sure. Yeah, I'm that old...

Global geopolitics has been thrown into absolute chaos after Scotland’s wild haggis formally seized control of Greenland, citing “ancient territorial rights” and “strategic whisky security concerns.” The operation was launched at 4:00am following weeks of mounting tension over Donald Trump’s...
