Hey, I’m getting a late start. A magnificent redhead from my past wandered into my life recently and spent the night. We had a lot of catching up to do and ate breakfast of Mole enchilidas this morning at the little Mexican restaurant up the street, Maya’s. This small restaurant in an old brick building,

Hey, I don’t know about you, but life is strange and more bizarre by the day. Is it too much population? Just this week I read about drones being used domestically, sports taking over for religion, and security cameras expanding their reach into our lives. And of course how computer access will monitor every aspect

This week’s Digital Discovery brings us back in time; call it chopper archeology if you will. Our friend Deano Masouras recently unearthed an old issue of Choppers Magazine from December 1968 and was nice enough to scan a few pages for us. You’re looking at a feature of Ed Roth’s famous Candy Wagon. Enjoy

Hey gang, Bandit has flown the coop for a while, leaving the rest of us overworked, underpaid and underappreciated minions completely in charge. Big mistake there, stretch! While the King of the Biker Nation is living it up in the Caribbean, sailing the emerald waters of Martinique, getting hammered on rum and sampling other fine

As my eyes accustomed to the low light I thought for an instant I had died and gone to heaven. Or maybe been whisked by a modern day genie to an Aladdin’s Cave of motorcycles. But when I pinched myself it hurt, so I figured so semblance of realism inhabited this motorcycle nirvana. But let

The arguably rare, at least to Western eyes, Hungarian Pannonia 250 had been perfectly matched to Duna “bullet nose” sidecar when found by its owner, an admitted “professional computer geek whilst at the 2009 Daytona Bike Week where she ambled into the motorcycle auction to find a bike suitable for AHRMA bike racing. “Unfortunately that

Hey, Damn, we’re slamming directly into the holidays once more. The weather has gone to shit in big chunks of the country, and the bastards turned the clocks back, so it will get darker earlier. How does that make sense? We need more light in the winter. Ah, but we always have the Sunday Post

Hey, It’s Halloween and the cute girls are out, wearing the hottest outfits. It was outfit city around here all week, girls coming and going scouring through Sin Wu’s secret stash. Of course we were in the shop trying to figure out the Salt shaker. We have install a new Dyna S single fire ignition

It was dark the night I rode into Rockingchair, North Carolina and found a small dank bar in the back of a motel. I don’t remember a name on the dark front as I rolled in on my stretched Shovelhead. It wasn’t anything to look at, and neither was I. I had ridden a thousand

Hey, This is going to be a wild one, and I’m trying to shorten it, so I can finish wiring my Mudflap Girl FXR. It dawned on me that I have no hydraulic brake lines for this puppy. Well, actually John Reed sent me some, but I just haven’t headed down that road yet. If

Hey, Strange times we’re living through. It’s interesting, and I hope the government can get past all the hindering regulations and remember what this country was based on– freedoms not restrictions. But we grapple with our own existence and wonder if we need to head in another direction. Folks ask me why I don’t

Hey, It’s a short one, this weekend, but packed with good info. We are just back from a Vegas Bikefest whirlwind weekend. We finished the Thursday News, then Ray C. Wheeler, Bikernet Performance Editor, and I, jumped in the Bikernet Hearse and cut a dusty trail into the Mojave desert toward the Nevada border. I

Oh no, It’s a deja vu. Ray C. Wheeler, the Bikernet Performance editor peeled toward the Salt Flats for the Cook’s Shootout this morning at the crack of dawn. He straddled the Salt Shaker and cut a dusty trail with Bikernet stickers and our Bonneville books in tow. About an hour out
Hey, Life is nuts and so is the news. Get this, the Post office is about cooked. They need to downsize or they will be out of business. They just don’t compete anymore with e-mail, UPS, or Fedex. They can’t pay the 5.5 billion dollar payment to fund future retirees’ healthcare benefits. Seems Congress has

We were fortunate to stumble across two very rare Vintage Yale Motorcycles recently. One was a 1910 original paint single, one of three known to exist. The other is this sexy 1914 Yale twin. We decided after a heated debate to feature the ’14 because of its stylish art-deco appearance, detail and fit and finish.

Hey, It’s another perfect day in Paradise. We worked on my Mudflap girl FXR most of yesterday modifying and mounting the Custom Chrome rear fender. We installed the new Progressive shocks and continue to monkey with the wheel and chain alignment. I need to think about a chain guard and some mounting issues with the
With all the neo-hippies marching and claiming that peace is just around the corner during the hell fire time that we call the 21st century, it’s nice to escape to a time when you could fuck, take acid, and ride the shit out of your motorcycle with reckless abandon.
