Everything old is new again -

Remember a few (or a lot of) years ago, when those built-like-a-brick-outhouse Russian motorcycles tried to invade North America by cutting the prices and pretending that welding splatters at the joints in the high-pressure pipes used for the frame were really quite classy? And each bike had a sidecar that would make Colonel Clink smile like a basket of bananas? Well, they're b-a-a-a-c-k !!! And just as ugly as ever.....See?

  1. I wish I could find a 2-seater side car that could fit my [ever-growing] "tween" & "teen" kids in! I think that would be an AWESOME machine to do a beach trip on! :-P

    And...I've been eye-balling these new bikes that have the 2 wheels in the front, rather than the trikes that they were making. I've been trying to figure out how the ride would be in something like that. I bet that has to be one suspension with a LOT of "give" in it, in order to lean properly. It looks odd but also kind of cute, as well! :-) I quite like them...especially after having dumped my own bike and did a flip from one side to the other and spinning several revolutions! That was not so much fun! :-(
