I think if I had an enclosed sidecar my wife might even want to go riding in the rain. I wonder if AC is an option in those things?

 

 

Thank you Conrice, I think a little bit of wee may have come out when I saw those photo's.

Just a pair of MX bars and my life would be complete.


(But you need to lose the Pin It thing. That whole Pinterest thing is so completely girly.)

A quick clean - up in Photoshop will completely upgrade your manly status.

 

Pin-wut? Thats all bike-exif.




ICON Kat

 

Now I realize what's going on; my wife is into the whole Pinterest thing, so the CBR web page "helpfully" displays the "Pin it" thing.

My apologies Conrice, the Pinterest thing appears to be coming from my end, not yours.

It is obviously me that is not the manly one.

Note to self : maybe the good lady wife and I should have separate laptops.

But that is a totally cool Katana. (Apart from the issue of unfiltered carburation, not a prescription for extended engine life I would think??)

 

So, its cool that I posted that Kat because the build was on the show Naked Speed last night.

Anyone watching it? Its sort of like the show Cafe Racer, but with a hint of fighter and done in a more chronological fashion.

They have two builds per episode. Ricky Gasdon was the other build. He rebuilt the motorcycle he made his first 1/4 mile pass on - his dad's KZ1300, which, unfortunately, was also the motorcycle his father died on. Really emotional build, understandably so.


Its a good show, everyone should check it out!

 

yeah it's pretty good. its ka very similar format as cafe racer, which i loved. the only problem with those showa us i have to wipe the drool off my shirt every time they show someones cycle junkyard. Id love to be ableto pick one a get a project bike.

 

Sounds good Conrice ; but a quick search has only delivered me those websites that I have to subscribe to.

Give me a nice clean link, and I'll watch it any day of the week.

 

I watched in on velocity. First time watching the show and the same day it was posted on another forum I'm on. I'll try to find a link that free...

 

If you search Icon 1000 katana, you'll find their promo videos for it.

Anyone who watched the episode knows that they didn't baby that bike. Their rider said something to the effect of, "some people ride because of the freedom or feeling the wind in their hair. I ride because I like to beat the sh*t out of bikes."


Anyways.

Is it too early for this year's Christmas list?
