That Darmah was featured in Rapid I think! Its certainly one hot bike.

+1 for a build up thread Triple, it'd be easier to write up in the end too! Doo eeet!

This is one of my favourites

There was a nice aussie rd400 that had been painted like an mv in a streetfighters book a few years back. One day I'll get a scan of it.

Here's a couple I like as well....

Matchless G45


Velocette Venom Thruxton

The Velo Thruxton was a true clubman racer, ride it to the track then race it, more racer than road bike, brilliant performance for a 500 single-that velocity stack on the carb wasn't for looks. You could still buy them new in in 69/70, when I started out. Tho of course, by then, the strokers had it for outright go. I did prefer it with the black tank/gold pinstriping, traditional Velo.....

MMmmmm Tritons look so sweet



Can't remember where I found this but it's very tasty



From the Davida :Manufacture and Worldwide Distribution of Motorcycle Helmets,Goggles,Vacuum Gauges and Accessories . site

Katrien & Motoguzzi

that shot of Katrien and the Zagato Guzzi was from a Davida helmet ad--not that keen on guzzis meself, but that combo, I'll make an exception. Both totally hot.

This is not a cafe racer, this is a stock 850mk111 Commando Roadster; however, with the addition of the black bikini fairing(currently on), and the genuine Dunstall Decible megas, it is a fair approximation. Whole changeover is under a half-hour....and it sounds great

Sorry my good man, I might read your post maybe wrong but the bike in the atatched pic is painted up like an yammy proddy racer.

Could you please choose another host, something like photobucket would be ideal. Otherwise I'd be happy to host them for you.

Cheers.
