I'm about as good at doing wheelies in that game as I am in real life. Also, I love how a bike insurance company has a wheelie game on it's website.

I did drag elbow.... and thigh, and hip and shoulder etc etc. If you look closely you can see the black mark coming off of the FRONT tire for a good several feet back.

Today was the absolute worst time I've had riding motorcycles ever. First, I was going to go dirt biking with a friend, but the trails were closed since they looked like this (normally there's a small stream there): We decided to go ride on the street, and it started raining when we were about 50 miles from home:  And then I did this. Luckily only a few scratches and a broken turn signal lens.

Somebody linked to this crazy air-cooled Wankel powered bike, and I clicked through to find this: the Goldammer Notorious quote:Roger Goldammer has created some pretty wild custom motorcycles over the years, but to our eyes, his 2007 ‘Notorious’ is the best of the lot. It’s a modern take on a Norton Manx cafe racer, with a featherbed-styled frame housing one half of a Harley V-twin. That single cylinder is a substantial 965cc though, and force-fed by a Rotex supercharger running 20 pounds of boost. The oversized headlight, slanted back in the modern style, is actually from a VW Beetle—and the drum on the front wheel is hiding four-piston disc brakes. The finish is up to Goldammer’s usual extraordinary standard, but there’s little paint on this bike: most of the bodywork is clear coat over bare metal. Delicious.  E: actually, that entire site is amazing. There's some crazy custom based of an FZR100 with the supercharger from a Mini Cooper S grafted on.  VV yeah, the ludicrously large supercharger belt up the side really makes it. I just clicked through the entire site, very very very awesome stuff on there.

That website is awesome. How the hell does this turn into this?  I'm pretty sure the only original stuff left on there anymore is the frame and engine.

Is that actually a Triton? I mean the frame looks featherbeddy enough but I can't identify Triumph engines at a glance.
