Bologna (spent 5 years there - University) is certainly the heart of Italy's motor industry (forgot Ferrari, which is like 25 miles from there). Certainly the one which was "entrepreneur driven".

i was only thinking of the motorcycle industry -- cars?  FORGET IT!  you guys have car companies everywhere (historically) it blows my mind...

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

There was a time back then, when people having an idea (and some money to back it up), could build their own dream.
People that were willing to put money and hard work, where their mouth was. People which were risking their own house and personal property to follow their dreams. Nowadays it is harder to find this kind of people, mostly because the market changed.
Compare that to today's CEO/BoardOfDirectors driven industry, where the worse it can happen if something does not go with the plan, is making nM$ instead of 2xnM$.


actually it is government regulation that killed the cottage motor industry.

Where'd you see that Morbidelli techno?


A few weekends ago at Symmons plains in Tasmania at the National Historics racing.

1.  tire needs air
2.  what wheels are those
3.  is it me, or is the front wheel a 16 and the rear an 18?
4.  i wonder if they put a counterweight in for the horizontal rod?

I saw it on a CafeRacerCulture.net. There wasn't any information with it.  Those mismatched sized wheels do look a little strange.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

Excuse me Sir, your bike is smokin.

The gold metalflake bike is Rich Lambrecht's from DesmoPros cafe 31 bike.
Those pictures are from Ducstock in October at Barber and I can tell you from seeing that bke in person that pictures dont come close to doing it justice.
There's more high tech engineering and mouth watering parts on that bike then you can imagine.
Like the D16rr forks for one thing.
If Im not mistaken thats one of the Bostrom bros riding it.
It's supposed to be a feature bike in the next season of Cafe Racer.

The D16rr forks do look bad a$$ on that bike.  I think that may be the next mod done on my bike.  cheeky

Just to follow on, Rich Lambrecht is the guy who made the Deja Blue bike, which was a replica of Old Blue, the 1977 Daytona Superbike winner.
