Reader Ride. A Blue Jewel of a Ducati GTS900

Edward Hessel of Louisville, KY sends in this beautiful (and beautifully photographed) bike.

He Writes:
I am really enjoying the diversity of moto's on your site.
Please find attached a couple of my 78' 900GTS Ducati, thanks and keep up the non- conformity.

A non-conformist huh?  Thanks.  I like that.

Very "Unusual" Triumph Street Tracker / Fighter / Whatever?

I keep looking at this bike and wondering why I kinda sorta like it. It's a very strange mix that that has me scratching my head.

5 knees and 3 elbows... Funny video.

Some nutty stuff here.

As long as we're visiting Daytona... Here's a nice XS650 Racer

By Request... The Jay Springsteen Harley Racebike

Had a request from the previous post to see more of the #9 harley in the background. I know I've posted this bike before but I don't get tired of looking at it.

By the way, the Google Search feature and the "word-cloud" really does work pretty well

Bob's Badass Bonneville...

Basic Bonneville turned street tracker with Honda Wheels and seriously upgraded suspension.  I've seen Bob ride this bike and she goes as good as she looks.  The bike's been on here before but this is a better and more recent picture from last May's Riding Into History where he was volunteering.

2nd UPDATE: Suddenly Street Legal! BWM Cafe / Former Racer.

Second Update.  Thanks once again to our very knowledgeable commentators (thanks Tony) I have been informed that this is a creation of Ritmo Sereno (maybe I should try reading the decals on the bikes).  A seriously drool-worthy Japanese base builder of custom European machines.  Here is a direct link to one of the bikes below.   I can't help you with the translation but the pictures speak for themselves.

Update:  A clarification.  As was pointed out in the comments I think it's possible that this is the same bike but not really likely.  They are similar enough to make for an interesting blog entry but probably different rides.  Probably the same builder.  That or they knew (of) each other.

Now it's a racebike....

Add lights and remove the pan and now it's a Cafe... or is it the other way around.   Stunning bike(s) either way.

Graffiti 6 - Combination of Music and Painting

Graffiti 6 is a group band consisting of three persons. They love the art of music and other arts such as graffiti. Merging their music with album cover art in the design and appearance when they are filled with art valued the great and beautiful. They know how to exploit the sense of art and art in order to become a beauty that can be enjoyed by many people.

NOT Sold in the U.S. Bikes We Don't "Get" Here in The U.S.

Over on Motorcycle Daily there's a good blurb today about a beautifully equipped Euro only V-Strom 650. The story covers the usual storyline about Americans and their love of cruisers etc... etc...

The sad fact of the matter is that we don't get them here because we really don't "get" them.

Damm Shame. Missing out on some great bikes that would do very well in Americas wide open spaces.

Exhibit "A":

Beautifully Sculpted Bodywork on this "Espresso" Honda Cafe..

Sweet Little Benelli With Engine Pics

A true work of art but it's engines like this that make me glad I'm into 2-strokes. LOL.

Declaration Love Graffiti Art on Mural Wall Street

Love is a feeling that is very difficult to described in words but can be felt by our hearts are soft. Love has a negative and positive effects, but if someone has a love so often times love can make even the insane can be someone different. More daring, creative because it is an expression of the feelings of their hearts. And one of the declarations made by some people is the express feelings in a graffiti art displayed on wall street.
