Yeah, Pete it's rough...but it's a runner.

Out of the way Copper! Hondas coming through!


This is a grainy blow-up of a grainy pic below.


A few posts back I had a snap of this bike at this years CJMC show in Auburn. I believe this is at a CJMC show up at Tahoe, about a dozen years or so ago.

Click here for a link to that post------------->125 twin racer

Found some print outs on regular paper in a drawer, of some shots from that earlier show, maybe 2000-2001? My scanners down so went out and 'copied' them with my phone camera on the hood of my Ford Ranger...


Nicely done Honda.


This strange looking CB 550 was billed as a "European Block" bike, the owner said with 'tongue in cheek'.


Here a nice CB 350 engine in an SL 350 frame Flattracker. Going to tack this one on the wall to inspire me to get going on my Flattrackers... 


A GB 500 and a Guzzi out in the parking area, next to our transport for the day...the even more faded looking purple dune buggy belonging to one of my friends...it lost it's muffler on the way home, and sounded like a race car...OK, enough early enhanced digital graininess...


Had to go snap this pic of a cool Falcon around the corner from me, so I could compare it to an Australian model Mr.Williams of the WLP blog posted of cars and bikes at a show down his way...Interestingly the one he pictured was quite a bit different, check out his blogpost if Falcon minutiae is interesting to ya---------------------->Australian Falcon<-------click here


Earlier this week, took a couple day mini-vacation down the coast to my mother's . 75 degree weather, it even rained a little Monday night, so nice in the Monterey area...As I was filling up the old gas tank, this beautiful '54 Hudson Hornet pulled into the station...





Two carbs...

And just for fun, probably have posted a pic of this before....at the Casa Da Fruta pit stop on the way to Monterey....


And on to the weekend, and getting some bike work accomplished...
