Here is a preview of my Honda CL350 in progress. Hoping to have it ready for spring riding. Still a lot of work to go, electrical and seat are going to be the final push.

Tickling my fancy today! Plates and title finally arrived as did a miracle mechanic that lives only three blocks away that I found on a Craig’s ad,these are his hands in pic putting a tune into the carbs so I could blast around the block for a few laps.

I've had a few over the years as I spent 20 years either selling parts, being a Moto Guzzi dealer, restoring Guzzis, owning a powder coating business and then toiling away in Hardley Ableson dealerships.
Those days are long gone but I still have one Buell and a whole slew of modern Triumph Triples.
Here's the old Buell Useless which I bought new and put over 127,000 miles on it.
It's been a good bike and one pic shows it being smashed with The Magic Hammer after it ingested a bunch of grit at around 93,000 miles. It was burning so much oil it was coming out the intake manifold!
It's being swapped (plus some cash) for an older Buell S3 this upcoming Spring.

Very nice. I love the old Guzzis. It’s also very rewarding doing your own work on them. I’ve been riding for 49 years and have rebuilt or swapped plenty a motor in my day, from 2 strokes, to inline 4’s to V-Twins.

Have fun with the new Buell !

Go big Blue! Did you see Waylon or Willie?

Ha ha, no but some pretty good local guys play there often. I think it’s been a while since Willie used to have his big 4th of July picnics there.

Beautiful countryside to ride in down there too. Always have to hit up Devil’s Backbone whenever we go.

A trip on a Buell X1W convinced the wife and I that it was time to move forward into the 21st Century so here's what infected me with the Triumph bug, the Yellow Banana (2002 Sprint RS).
Just a tremendous bike which always surprises me with just how good it is.
Small and relatively light, big enough for two people, good handling, decent brakes and this little weasel will actually do 150 MPH so it has more than enough power.

As an added bonus you'll never lose it in a parking lot!

My current bikes.


I wrote and photographed for a Texas motorcycle magazine for almost 10 years and had a number of cover photos. This one didn't make it. A great friend and model, Jenny, on my 2011 Road King in Sedona Orange.

The most fun I've had in a long time. A 2017 Triumph Bonneville T120. Light as a feather (certainly compared to Harley's) and gets from 0 to 60 very quick!!! I love the retro look of this modern Bonny.
