Well, we finally did it. We got ourselves a sidecar motorycle. Not long after the purchase, we were ‘flying the chair’ and cruising the streets in our our new-to-us 2010 Ural “Red October” sidecar motorcycle. Just a quick heads-up: you’ll probably be seeing this machine in many of our future pics n’ posts; we can’t stay off of it. This is gonna be fun…
Driving slowly in the dark at 4:45am, Casey and I spotted a glowing iPhone waving at us. We pulled along the curb and our buddy, Chris, hopped in. It would be the beginning of a 2-hour conversation about motorcycles as we drove south. None of us are early birds, but we were wide-awake that morning.
We picked up the recent BikeCraft Magazine today at Barnes & Noble to see Casey’s BMW Cafe Racer in glossy print. The article was penned by Chris Hunter, featuring motorcycles that garnered much attention on BikeEXIF.com (the internet’s source for viewing the latest custom builds and unique bikes).
Jon Ard knows his way around XS650 Yamahas and applies a lifelong knowledge of custom fabrication to his builds. This bobber, Bad Penny, employs the signature Ardcore Choppers rigid frame and low-slung vibe. It’s been awhile since we snapped these shots, but the look is timeless…
It’s a big weekend in Indy during the 2013 Dealer Expo and the Progressive International Motorcycle Show (PIMS). On Friday night, we dropped in on the Int’l Motorcycle Show to check out the new bikes and products. Even though we’ve seen the manufacturer’s models in print or web articles, it was nice to see them in person to get a sense of size and scale. See our picture-post below…
Chicago’s Mods vs Rockers has grown to the biggest event of its kind in the USA. Attendees will see European, Japanese and American motorcycles of all types show up for this top-notch motorcycle and scooter rally. Vintage, custom, modern, and unique bikes line the curbs of North Lincoln Ave and thousands of people fill the sidewalks outside Delilah’s. At this year’s event, Lee Rocker and his band-mates capped off the night with some bass-slappin’ Rockabilly at the Bottom Lounge.
