        I saw that over the weekend.  So crazy!  That is serious skill.

          Had to clear out my bikes for the annual porch scrub down. Thought they looked good on the lawn under a mango tree who was dropping loads of yellow leaves and some early fruit.

          1991 BMW R100 Classic; 2009 Triumph Scrambler 900; 1981 Honda XL250R

          The journey is the objective.

            Went in for new tires on my Scrambler. The rear was very worn down and the front had uneven wear which caused annoying bounciness at certain speeds. Picked a set of Metzeler Tourance as they had good reviews and I got them for a good price locally.

            Old Bridgestone Trail Wings

            New Metzelers

            I should be able to give them a good tryout in a few weeks, before Xmas, on a three day trip to the mountains.

            The journey is the objective.

                  Thought I'd try re-ignite this awesome thread given the current stay at home policy with some shots of my CB750, cafe racer, shed build. This one's been happily draining my savings for the last two years. I have my 70 year Dad (retired engineer) to thank for getting the important stuff set up right. We still ride together occasionally, the memories of which, will never leave me, what a legend! We completed her last year, and was rightfully chuffed to display her at the Bike Shed 2019. If only I could take her out now, with all those empty roads!

                                      @motojobobo That's also a CB750 four. The bikes pictured are both from 1976, and had spent their lives in a garage together in Scotland for the last 40 years. Seemed a shame to separate so we bought them both. The red one restored to original spec. The black one far from standard, but that's a longer story…

                                        Ditto @Giles if you've looked lately decent sand cast originals are darn hard to come by and ££££, and probably better spent in dry storage where I suspect most are these days.

                                          Just got on to this thread…Really great bikes,and pictures. Reminds me of when I was a kid and the 750/4 came out and I,for the first time in my life,lusted after something that wasn’t a Harley.
