      @Graeme:

      It's the 1600 cc six cylinder engine from the K1600 series.

      The bike is probably closer to something like a Diavel than a Harley.

      More like a bloody rocket! :o

        Hey guys. Looking for some info if anyone has experience. I got a scratch on my Scout gas tank 😞 it's matte black.

        Anyone know how much to expect to get it resprayed or any tips for making it less noticeable?

        Cheers! 

            Yamaha have announced another Yard Built collaboration, this time by Shinya Kimura and based around the MT-07 (FZ-07 in the US).

            The motorcycle press is speculating that it's going to influence a production model. It'll be toned down by a factor of at least ten, but could be an interesting bike.

            Still, it gives the IH Yard Built beast some competition…

              The new Honda RC213V-S has been officially announced. It's more-or-less a road-going Moto GP machine.

              If you want one, then orders open on July 13th, but…

              For the RC213V-S, a machine for public roads, the regions with sales planned are Europe, the U.S., Australia and Japan. The manufacturer's recommended prices (tax-inclusive) are set at €188,000 in Europe (Germany *1), ¥21,900,000 in Japan, A$244,000 in Australia, and US$184,000 in the U.S.

              :o

                    The Honda strikes me as pointless. I doubt it'll be significantly better than a top-end Ducati or Beemer.

                    But I'm glad that it exists.

                      That Honda, that costs THAT much, will still be blown out of the water by the H2. That  is a BEAST

                            It's the new Auto Fabrica Type 6, via Bike EXIF.

                            Ah, just found their Instagram feed. The Type 9 is a Guzzi… 😘

                                    Everyone has to start somewhere. That's how bikebuilders are born.  They are not engineers, nor born with a wrench in their hand.

                                      I could build a house if I wanted too, I could probably build a car too and I know I can do a bike, because I did a BSA 250 Star in the late 70's.  But I don't have the time.

                                      Why don't you build your own jeans, I'm sure you could…...?  We all choose what to do with our time and money, just because some of us choose to do different things to you, does not make it wrong....
