ernst degner, mz racer.


shinya kimura's bevel drive 750ss ducati, stunning motorcycle from a great engineer, he's sold this one to brad pitt, what a fucking waste.

this is a chopper. accept no substitutes.

the devils rider, i love this picture, it's just so cool, imagine this dude riding into town, studded lewis leather and badges, long leather fringe hanging from the wrist-zip, tom cruise 'topgun' asda shades, alvin stardust 'coo-ca choo' gloves, ape hangers, 'jet' helmet, [two sizes too small] and .................. the rubber ball horn hanging at a jaunty angle, honk, honk, honk!, beautiful!

doc forest, ozuma kanami.

grrr, aaaa.

jarno saarinen.

back protectors, full face helmets, air-bag leathers, re-hydration packs, tyre warmers, brolly-dollies, articulated lorries with mobile workshops, tyre technicians, visor technicians, motivational psychologists, data-loggers, sponsors, corporate hospitality suites, all the modern day moto-gp paraphenalia that means fuck -all compared to this picture of jarno saarinen racing amongst the sand-bagged trees in the 1971 russian grand-prix, maximum respect.

i really like concept bikes, it's a shame the manufactures aren't brave enough to get them out on the street rather than the bland look-a-likey bikes that they put out, you can't tell what they are without looking at the decal on the tank, this benelli is a cool looking tool with the little solo racing seat and the twin stacked mega's, the 'jarno' designation is a nice tribute to the late jarno sarrinen the finnish roadracer who sadly died in a racing accident in 1973.
