The F1 SS Cafe bike is now loaded up and heading to Client.

Actually getting some rain here in Southern California for a change

Well, as I type this blog right now, I can hear the rain pounding outside, we do need the good old H2O, so I am not complaining, but it does remind me of riding in the rain most days back in England as i was a Motorcycle Dispatch rider, fun times and great memories for […]

Rain forecast all weekend, but plenty to do in the barn

The Matador – A 1978 CB750K that needed some TLC

Well, after 25 years here in Southern California and creating over 50 machines in many guises, each old resurrection I try and get into and finish a non-running left alone Honda, becomes harder and harder to know what to do with her these days, but if I found super clean models, then I could just […]

Formula 1 Livery CB750 SS Honda Project

Well, I have been playing about with the F1 project and have decided to fit the good old Rocket 4 seat assembly and then upholster the seat with traditional style snaps, just to show the times of yesteryear and the old school seat set ups of the day. I am happy with the way it […]

Picked up a 1966 Honda CL77 305 today

Picked up 6 CB750’s today

Sometimes I get a call asking if I could clear out a garage or back yard as it has a motorcycle in it, this time it was 6 CB750’s, so what closed the deal was it was free but a friend of mine I have known many years and helping him out was the least […]
