      Great looking bikes @Graeme but the tail ends on both are a little off putting IMO. Does he ever ride them? They look pristine!

      Sorry to hear about your ankle @summ3rhays but I'm guessing it's a good think in the long run?

        @Sam I don't know if he rides them. They look a bit clean to have been out on the road much. @summ3rhays (get well soon) said that his Sport Classic was painful to ride, and the Paul Smart is essentially the full-fat version of that bike.

        Actually, there's a rear plastic mudguard on the Paul Smart, which would have been there for the Aussie Design Rules, and probably pulled off by a new owner in the first five minutes. So I'm guessing it's a display piece.

          Thanks @Graeme & @Sam.  It will be good in the long run. It's been over 40*C since surgery so hopefully the extreme heat passes and then I'll be back on the bike.  Probably 6 more weeks until I can ride.

              The local Indian dealer has a couple of custom Scouts for sale. They've got a bunch of Rizoma parts and some interesting paint jobs.

              The first is a Café Racer. It's got rearsets, whereas the standard bike has forward controls.

              And the second is a very Evel Knievel Wall of Death machine!

              The bikes use Rizoma Club indicators, which are one of the options I was considering for the Thruxton. @summ3rhays has them on his BMW.

              They're good looking lights, and have CE certification, which means that they're also street legal. Although I'm waiting for Rizoma to bring out the Leggera.

                Killer bikes.  It's interesting that they switched sides for the exhaust on the BMW.  With both the exhaust and single swingarm on on side, I bet the other side looks super clean.

                  There's an article, in the recent Harley owners magazine,on The Race of Gentleman,and in it they profiled the riders and builders from their team. One of the more colorful riders,who I had seen in a lot of other photographs,is Atsushi "Sushi" Yasui who is originally from Tokyo. I googled him and,lo and behold,found this image of him riding on a beach ,somewhere, with an Iron Heart banner in the background. Also sent it to G.

                                      I don't know shit about bikes really. Used to ride pillion with a local MC club when I was younger but never owned one. If I was going to have one it would look like that^

                                        Looks meaty! I wonder if that's all standard?
                                        I'm not sure that rear suspension is going to do a damn thing mounted at that angle.

                                          The Indian Scout is stock, as far as I know. It's a good looking bike, but rather small, so @Jordonf9 might need to look elsewhere if he's as lanky as @Sam and I are. 🙂

                                          Just seen the Ashley Watson Eversholt jacket over at Silodrome.

                                          It's a waxed canvas jacket with a Dyneema lining to provide abrasion resistance; a waterproof and breathable drop liner to keep you dry; and a set of D3O armour. It's also available in navy. Could be good for riding around town.
