Vintage Porcelain Enamel Harley-Davidson Sign

Here is another sign at the same online auction.  Again, I didn't get it.

Vintage Mobiloil Motorcycle Oil Sign

I saw this up for auction a while back.  I didn't get the sign.  Sigh....

Charley Boorman and Russ Malkin Visit

As part of their Extreme Frontiers visit to Canada, Charley Boorman and Russ Malkin (of Long Way Round, Long Way Down, and Race to Dakar fame) stopped by a Vancouver BMW dealership for a meet and greet session.  I like their shows, and have watched them all, so I couldn't pass up the opportunity to see them in person. Desmo Rob and I made the trek downtown and took some pictures and said hello to Russ. 

BSA A65 Side Covers Finished

More completed side covers!

Piva Moto Sign

I created this sign for a friend's birthday.  There was a Piva motorcycle company in Italy in the 1920's, but I never found any logos or advertising from the company.  I made up the logo myself, using the Vespa  and Pope logos as inspirations.

Custom SV650

Another custom SV, courtesy of svrider.com.  Check out the site if you have a Suzuki SV650, (or if you want one).

Gas Tanks!

1970's Style Honda Chopper

This could've been put together in the 70's; if not, it sure looks like a 70's chopper.  Nicely done.

Vernon O'Keefe Ranch Bike Show

Here are some random shots from the show.

Yamaha Street-Tracker

Sign Master Ken snapped this fuzzy phone pic of one righteous Yamaha in an underground parking lot.

Racing Whizzers! And Lawnmowers!

Even Whizzers and lawnmowers were racing at O'Keefe.

O'Keefe Rannch Flat-Track Racing

The past weekend saw myself, Dave and Brother Tom head up to Vernon to catch the vintage bike show and flat-track racing at the O'Keefe Ranch. 

Dave's 1970 Triumph Chopper

Dave from Greaseball Choppers has put together this bobbed and chopped 1970 Triumph.  Outstanding bike, Dave!  And very loud, too!

Suzuki A100

Reading Material 2: Sideburn!

Here is some more quality summertime reading.  I found a copy of Sideburn at a local motorcycle show and I was so impressed that I bought all of the available back issues from Sideburn headquarters in England.  They were all available with the exception of issue #1.  This is now one of my all time favourite motorcycle magazines.  Sideburn covers a variety of motorcycle subjects with a heavy focus on flat-track and street-track style machines and racing.  This is a highly recommended read!

Reading Material: Motorcycho Magazine!

This is a great local publication of all things sickle!  Get yourself a copy (or two, or three).
