Auction showcasing the essence of Italian design and sprezzatura
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Classic vehicle auction house, H&H Classics, is set to sell over 40 classic Italian-made scooters and motorcycles, from 11 different manufacturers, at the National Motorcycle Museum, Solihull, on 12 July. The highly anticipated auction will bring together a diverse range of 248 motorcycles and scooters with a total estimated value of £1.5 million. A rich heritage of brands such as Ducati, Aprilia, Moto Guzzi, Vespa, Lambretta, and many more, will take centre stage at the auction. Among the strong lot line-up is the 1996 Bimota YB11, a rare 1000cc thoroughbred superbike utilising the best of Italian and Japanese engineering of the late 1990s. The YB11 used the iconic Yamaha Thunderace engine in a beautiful twin spar frame, and has an estimated price of £4,500 to £5,500. Fans of trail bikes will not be disappointed either, the 1973 Moto Guzzi Tuttoterrenois a rare all-terrain trail bike authentically restored back to its original condition. The two stroke, 125cc all-terrain bike is expected to fetch between £2,250 - £2,750. The 1972 Benelli 125 Sport Special could be an ideal purchase for a buyer looking for a recently restored Italian import. Presented in the trademark metallic green racing colours, this sporty single cylinder motorcycle is expected to reach between £3,500 - £4,500. Regarded by many as the most beautiful motorbike ever made, the 2000 MV Agusta F4 modern classic could be considered a steal at £7,500 - £8,500. MV Agusta rightly holds legendary status in the motorsport world having won 270 Grand Prix races, 38 World Riders' Championships and 37 World Constructors Championships. Those interested in Italian scooters will be excited for the 1966 Lambretta SX225 ‘BelAir 2’ which is argued to be the finest scooter Innocenti ever produced, whereas the 1978 Vespa (Douglas) Rally 200 represents an original scootering icon, with a mere two owners from new. The hand built 1971 BSA X-75 Hurricane Prototype will also be offered for sale, commanding a price of £28,000 - £32,000 due to its historical significance and scarcity. Just two prototypes were built, but this example has been under sole ownership since 1982. Mike Davis, motorcycle specialist at H&H Classics, said: “We are excited to present a remarkable collection of motorcycles and scooters at the upcoming National Motorcycle Museum auction. This varied assortment features a range of lots from well-known Italian manufacturers, truly capturing the essence of Italy's rich motoring heritage. The collection exemplifies the ingenuity and passion that characterises the Italian motorcycle and scooter industry, evoking a variety of emotions and captivating the interest of collectors and enthusiasts worldwide. From iconic scooters that have stood the test of time, to high-performance superbikes, each lot represents a cherished work of craftsmanship and design.” Bidders and enthusiasts alike can explore the full catalogue of exceptional lots, each with its own distinctive story. Other lots include the prestigious 1949 HRD Black Shadow, which held the title of fastest road vehicle until the early 1960s. Paul Weller’s 1968 Lambretta SX200 will be up for sale, as well as the historically fascinating 1986 Vespa PK125 which belonged to Italian gangster Valerio Viccei. Interested buyers can participate in the auction both in person at the National Motorcycle Museum, or remotely via online or telephone bidding. Detailed information on the bidding process, registration, and the complete auction catalogue can be found on the official H&H Classics website.

So we know Johnny has his truck, Mike and Miss Crawly like their red sports cars and Rosita probably owns one of those cars in her apartment driveway. If Buster, Ash, Gunter, Meena, Porsha and Nooshy had their own vehicles, what would they drive?
While I personally do not drive and have about as much car knowledge as a stack of bricks, I surprisingly have thought about this. I hope you enjoy! - <3 Gooseless
-------------------
Ash
In a lot of my (still in the works, sorry) fics, I actually have Ash driving a motorcycle! One, it's cheaper than a car, two, it's easier to find parking in a city with a motorcycle, and three, to be like her idol Clay Calloway.
Tumblr media
Gunter
Small, shiny, and yellow were obvious choices to me for Gunter's car. He actually brought it with him when he moved to the states! It helps that it's so bright when he's watching Rosita's kids because it makes a good landmark for them.
Tumblr media
Buster
Jointly owned between him and Eddie, Buster has a grey Mini Cooper. Why? Idk, it just screamed Buster to me. Eddie ends up using it the most however since Buster prefers to bike.
Tumblr media
Meena
Meena is in the same boat as Johnny, as in her car is actually her mom's like Johnny's is his dad's. It's pretty old but runs decently well so Meena doesn't really mind. She doesn't drive much after all.
Tumblr media
Porsha
A fancy silvery-blue car formerly of her dad's collection. He gave it to her on her 18th birthday so it's only a year or so old. She rarely uses it however since it is back at her house and she's staying in the city due to the show.
Tumblr media
Nooshy
When Nooshy does get a car, it is on sale and hardly working. But she does cover it in stickers for a while instead of fixing it, so when it inevitably breaks down, Johnny and Marcus both yell at them for being careless.
Tumblr media
Johnny
Once Johnny gets his own car (and stops sharing one with the rest of his family), he does not actually get a truck. I think he'd also get something vintage but more subtle (at least than the truck). And probably refinished it in the garage with his dad.

1960 Ducati 200 MotocrossHello Ducati enthusiasts! Here it is, one of the most rare and desirable ducati singles ever built. 
I have used the word “built” not “produced” as this motorcycle is truly a “one-off” factory made motorcycle direct from the prototype race shop. According to Mick Walker this bike is “the best” and “one of the last remaining examples” of the 15-20 175 and 200 motocross machines that were made in total. Only one 175 Motocross was imported into the UK during 1959 and no 200 Motocross ever made it to that country.  
Ducati’s interest in off-road competition motivated the factory to hand-build these special machines.  The 200, which produced 19 bhp at 7500 rpm, was the equal of race winning 250’s of that era. Unfortunately for Ducati they sold very few of these machines as its quality alone was not enough to generate sales. The problem was the price! These hand built one-off machines were almost 10% more expensive than the BSA B34 Gold Star 500!
This motorcycle utilized a standard Ducati 200cc O.H.C engine.   Actual capacity is 203.783cc with a compression ratio of 8.5: 1. The carburetor is a Dell’Orto SS 27 A with F 20 filter bent 45 degrees and a separate elastic float chamber, type SS2. After that almost every other component is a “one-off” or “coach built”.The braced frame has massive gusseting around the headstock and double downtubes underneath the engine unit, making the frame into a full-loop cradle type with a solid skid plate to protect the engine case. The swing-arm is also stronger than any standard production Ducati single with a completely different design around the rear suspension support and rear wheel spindle chain adjuster fitting. There is a different loop from the back of the tank to the upper suspension mounts and an additional bracing loop under the seat, between the suspension mounts running over the mudguard.  The foot pegs actually bolt to three separate lugs welded to the frame.
Ok all you Ducati experts; have you ever seen a set of 180 mm conical brake hubs like these? I think the wheels and hubs might be the most beautiful parts on this bike! Look at the chrome steel rims that are “shouldered” like the alloy rims of that period! Hand painted spokes, no wonder the bike was so expensive compared to those leaky British bikes! 21 inch front wheel and a 19 inch rear, this bike was ahead of its time. The front forks are also hand built with a very unique set of caps and an air equalization tube. The handlebars have braces to the fork caps and the control lever mounts are welded on. The brake and clutch levers are also unique to this bike.
The slim tank and seat actually look the part of a 1960 MX race bike. The fenders also appear to be “coach built” but the side tool boxes and the headlight appear to be stock Ducati parts. I have also never seen this style tail lamp assembly and tail lens on other Ducati’s.I am the third owner of this bike. The previous owner bought it from a Ducati Dealer that had acquired the bike new from Berliner. He used the bike as his personal dirt bike for many years. When I first examined photos of the motorcycle I immediately noticed the gold painted frame, cherry red tank, tool boxes, different frame and styling. I recognized the 200MX model but was confused as I had never seen one before. I called my friend Malcolm Tunstall, Syd’s Cycles, in St. Petersburg Florida and he confirmed the identification but said he had never seen one either! Malcolm suggested I contact Reno Leoni in New Jersey and again he confirmed that it was a 1959 or 1960 200MX. I asked him what it was worth and again he said he had never seen one and that I should “just buy it!”
I had the bike professionally restored at Harry’s Motors in Denver Colorado. The restoration took over two years but was worth the wait. This bike is a museum piece! The engine is completely rebuilt to better than factory specifications, has never been run, and the “new” old stock battery is still “dry” (no acid).
Documented by Mick Walker: See attached;
“The 200 Motocross was only built to special order (1959 and 1960). It is doubtful that more than thirty examples were actually constructed. ”[Walker, Mick 2000, Taglioni And His World Beating Motorcycles, MBI Publishing Company, page 117 (color photo) Page 79 (B&W photo) Back Cover Jacket (color photo)]“Built in very small numbers during 1959 and 1960 extremely rare and desirable 200 motocross.”  [Walker, Mick 2002, Illustrated Buyers Guide 3rd Edition MBI Publishing Company page 34 (B&W photo)]“Dear Mike, Nice to talk with you on the telephone this evening.  As promised I’m forwarding photocopies of the Motocross (175)which was imported into the UK during 1959 for ex road racer/become dealer, Alan Trow (seen in one of the pictures). No 200 Motocross ever made it to this country. I believe only around 15-20 175 and 200 Motocross machines were made in total”. (In a personal letter to me from Mick Walker dated 24 August 1993).

Motorcycle Accessories For Protection
Due to the fact that it's not quite as easy to navigate on a motorbike. You can't simply hand the map over your shoulder to your girlfriend behind and ask her to tell you where to turn. Navigating on a bike includes stopping. You require to take the draw up, work out where you're going and put it away. While you're stopped.
The Cumberland Parkway appeared all however deserted as the winds selected up and the rain began to bounce off https://rokform1.blogspot.com/ our helmets. Fortunately, we put on water resistant running fits or we would have been soaked. As it was, the rainfall was not the https://www.washingtonpost.com/newssearch/?query=motorcycle phone mount predominant issue.

Insurance coverage rates are higher depending on which state you are from.

Even if sales of brand-new iphone motorcycle mount were decreasing - that would not kill business. In the business of offering rolling stock - automobile, bikes and farm equipment - there are 2 ways to make revenue. That is the sale of used items and the sale of service. Those are the revenue generators in these kinds of organization. Competitors for brand-new products is so competitive that little revenue is made on that. The value is in the customer database.

Packing for a motorcycle phone mount trip takes a bit more believed than packing for a journey in the automobile. You have restricted storage area and plenty of products that you may need along the way. The secret is to pack as light-weight and compact as possible.

Add a healthy dosage of chrome to a bike without needing a single wrench. Chrome side covers appearance excellent and change the basic painted covers in a breeze. The only catch is the covers are one of the more expensive accessories on our list - with prices starting at $95.
She was really fortunate since if her spinal column had actually moved a little more in either direction, she would have been paralyzed and would have drowned quickly. She actually had her guardian angels taking care of her that day since in spite of her distressing injuries, she didn't even require iphone motorcycle mount to have surgery and that she might absolutely return to play golf once she gets more powerful.
Never ever over insure. You will only receive the market value for the motorbike anyhow, so extra coverage is a waste of cash. Some insurance business use discounts when you keep the bike in a garage.
Connect the dense and heavy things at the bottom of the bike, near to the side so that the weight gets centralized. However put the lightweight products like pillows on the top of the bike.
I realize motorcycles are not for everybody. However, if you are fifty, do not live like life is over, live life as if it were just beginning. Actually, it is simply beginning.
Whether they are the conventional looking bike, or a custom made look, bikes demand attention.
Tank chaps fit under the gas cap or tank speedometer and back tank installing hardware.

“By his junior year (of high school), Mike Radenbaugh had founded Rad Power Bikes. Now based in Seattle, his company approached $100 million in sales in 2019. It has sold over 100,000 electric bikes. Numbers aren’t well reported for this young industry, but Rad Power Bikes is widely considered the largest e-bike seller in the United States.
When he was starting out in Humboldt County—home to back-to-the-landers and backwoods pot farmers—Mr. Radenbaugh fielded requests. “They wanted high handlebars, comfortable seats, powerful motors and long range,” he said. In other words, a blend of a bicycle, moped, scooter and motorcycle. This was in contrast to the few light and low-powered European and Japanese e-bikes available a decade and a half ago. 
Sixteen years later, Rad Power Bikes is sticking to its formula: comfort, power and simplicity.
And that was before a pandemic sent the whole country searching for a socially distanced way to get around. Throughout spring 2020, Rad’s sales tripled compared with the year before. Many models now have a three-month wait for delivery. What had been a niche product for Humboldt’s aging hippies heading to Burning Man has become a mainstream option for Everyman.
Tumblr media
“Guidehouse Insights, a market research firm, conservatively forecasts that electric bike sales in the United States will grow to nearly a million by 2023, up from 650,000 this year. “For years we’ve been saying that the market needs a decent, good-quality, relatively high-performing e-bike for $1,000 to $1,500. That’s the sweet spot,” said Ryan Citron, a senior research analyst at Guidehouse Insights. “Rad Power Bikes hit that mark.”
Jeff Loucks, executive director of Deloitte’s Center for Technology, Media and Telecommunications, believes there will be 130 million e-bikes sold globally between 2020 and 2023. “They make so much sense, especially in a Covid world,” he said. However, he added that the United States still needs to catch up to cities in Europe and Asia with a biking culture and proper lanes to make cyclists feel safe. Cities have accelerated that process because of the pandemic. “People are turning to cycling for transportation, exercise and just to keep sane during this time,” Mr. Loucks said.”

“It’ll be bloody hard to part with but I think it’s wrong just to look at it and not ride it but I don’t want to hurt my back any more – but I’d like it to go to the right person” If you are interested, contact Mike at What’s a Quasar? It’s a shame because I rode it quite a bit before the body went on and it’s like nothing you’ve ever ridden. “I’ve got a bad back and it’s so big and heavy I’m frightened of dropping it. “I just can’t get comfortable in it,” he says. “I think this was very close to that state – all of the wiring was in a box!”īut despite Mike’s efforts and history with the bike, he’s now decided to let it go. “The way they used to do it was to put the whole thing together, test ride it then, when they were happy, pull it all apart for painting,” said Mike. The result has the original, recommissioned, Suzuki GS850G shaft drive engine, bodywork painted by Mike himself in Ferrari red, fully-restored chassis including new brakes and brand new upholstery.
#Quasar bike update#
It was so tempting to update some parts, such as the ridiculously heavy fuel tank but I kept to the brief and I’m so glad I did.” “My brief to myself was to build it as Malcolm intended. I don’t think he’d have sold it to just anybody, but because I had this connection with the brochure and a history of building wacky vehicles I guess I passed the test.” “John was Malcolm’s best mate, he knew the bike intimately and told me it was the last one. Built by Quasar creator Malcolm Newell himself, it was never actually finished and, following Malcolm’s death in 1994, remained dismantled and in primer ever since. Then, last year, Mike posted on the ‘Feet first’ Facebook group, received a reply from John Bruce and acquired this example. “So I’d long had thoughts about getting one – but they’re incredibly rare.” “My dad was a photographer in the 1970s and did the original Quasar brochure shots in his studio at our house,” remembers Mike.

It was bought as a dismantled project last year by engineer and fabricator Mike Ryan, best known for a series of amphibious vehicles featured on TV’s Top Gear. Societies like the feet advancing motorcycle community help oneself to preserve and improve the inheritance left by Newell and Malfoy.The last ever Quasar – the radical, ‘feet-forward’, fully-faired motorcycle developed in Britain in the 1970s – has been rebuilt ready for the road – and is now being offered for sale.
#Quasar bike full#
The BBC ’ s peak Gear did a full feature on three Quasars in April 1988, and Quasar enthusiasts still continue to gather at motorcycle meetings. It may have lacked fund to continue production, and to this day there may entirely be twenty or so of the bikes in universe, but the bicycle ’ randomness bequest lives on to the credit of its designers. The Quasar is even viewed as a bewitching concept, a british theme of technology that was modern and revolutionary for its time, and helped shape the future of the diligence. It could comfortably sustain 100 miles per hour indefinitely and reach a soap speed of 110 miles per hour. The bicycle was able to offer excellent aerodynamics with a full-roof fiberglass body and a 750cc four cylinder Reliant automobile engine.

Legendary Darmah Ducati Taken Into ‘Custody’
Legendary Darmah Ducati taken into ‘custody’ for 43 years by traffic policeman in Derbyshire is now for sale with iconic auctioneers at the NEC on November 12th. One careful traffic policeman owner and only 13,300 miles from new, this example of the legendary Darmah Ducati comes to sale with Iconic Auctioneers on November 12th at the Lancaster Insurance Classic Motor Show for £10,000 to £12,000. When you spend your professional life on the road as a traffic cop you know something about motorbikes. So, the choice of your own personal bike is of great interest. “Certainly this bikes owner showed great taste and discrimination in selecting this beautiful machine” says Mark Bryan of Iconic Auctioneers. The bike’s owner worked as a traffic policeman for 25 years in the Derbyshire Peak District aboard a BMW 1,000 CC bike, chasing down speeding car drivers and stolen cars. He has now been retired for 25 years. Looking back to the day he bought his Ducati in 1980 for £2,500 he said: “I was in Heaven”. I loved the bike. People would stop me to admire it. There was just something about that twin cylinder engine. It was very easy to maintain as long as you had the oil and filters changed regularly. For anything more complicated the vendor would take the bike to Steve Wyn who serviced Mike Hailwood’s bikes. The Darmah, named after a mythical Tiger-like beast, was introduced by Ducati in 1977 as a softer version of the 900SS. Marketed as a ‘Sports Tourer’ and incorporated a dual seat and less fierce power delivery. This, unrestored and original, correct numbers, example was registered new in the UK on 1st August 1980 in Derbyshire. It has been owned by the same, ex-Police traffic officer, since new and includes original owner’s handbook and a service invoice from 2000. It shows an original 21,369km (13,278 miles) on the speedo. Unused for some years now, engine turns over with compression but will need recommissioning before road use. Mark Bryan, Iconic Auctioneers Motorcycle Manager says, “This is a rare opportunity to acquire such an original example Ducati's legendary Darmah SS. Fewer than 1500 SSD machines were made, with only about 100 sold in the UK.” For more information on this motorcycle or any of the others already entered for the Motorcycle at the NEC Classic Motor Show Sale on 12th November, please see www.iconicauctioneers.com.  If you have a motorcycle or collection that you are interested in selling, please contact our motorcycle specialists on +44 (0) 1926 691 141 or [email protected].

1937 CROCKER V-TWIN ENGINE NO. 37-61-24A legend among American motorcycles, the Crocker has assumed almost mythic status since the last one left the Los Angeles factory 70 years ago. Only 60-or-so twin-cylinder Crocker street bikes were ever made, each one unique, and today these hand-built masterpieces are among the most collectible motorcycles of all time. A successful enduro racer on Thor motorcycles, Albert G Crocker took over the Denver Indian agency in 1913. He moved on to manage the Indian branch office in Kansas City before finally settling in Los Angeles, California in 1928 as agent for the Springfield manufacturer. Al Crocker moved into motorcycle manufacture in stages, starting out in 1931 making speedway frames to accept the 45ci (750cc) Indian Scout v-twin engine. An overhead-valve conversion kit for the 30.5ci (500cc) Scout soon followed, but after more than a year of competition, during which the v-twin speedway racer achieved a measure of success, Crocker was forced to recognized that a single-cylinder engine made more sense for dirt use. Introduced in November 1933, the speedway single was the first all-Crocker motorcycle. Bearing a passing resemblance to the British Rudge, the Crocker speedway motor proved itself superior to the Harley-Davidson CAC but was slightly down on power when compared to that offered by J A Prestwich, whose engines would dominate the sport for the next three decades. After 40-50 speedway Crockers had been built, the project was abandoned and Al Crocker moved onto fulfill another of his ambitions: the construction of a class-leading roadster. In keeping with the mainstream American tradition, this new model had to be a v-twin, and Crocker's effort - powered by a 45-degree unit displacing 61ci (1,000cc) - was duly presented to the motorcycling public early in 1936. At the time of its introduction, the Crocker was the only American street twin with overhead valves, although unbeknown to Al Crocker the OHV Harley-Davidson 'Knucklehead' was only a few months from production. The first five engines were built with exposed valves inclined at 90 degrees in a hemispherical combustion chamber – the classic 'hemi' design – before Crocker opted for the simpler arrangement of enclosed parallel valves for the remainder. Other advanced features of the Crocker included a cast-aluminium gas tank and constant-mesh transmission, although once again H-D was hot on Crocker's heels with its own constant-mesh 'box. Faced with competition from Harley-Davidson's newly introduced overhead-valve Knucklehead, Crocker responded with ever-larger engines. Crocker cylinders were thick enough to tolerate a considerable amount of over-boring, and the flexibility of small-scale, hand-built manufacture enabled Crocker to offer engines to customer specification in capacities up to (and sometimes beyond) 72ci (1,180cc). Al Crocker is known to have missed out serial numbers, which explains why some machines have three-digit numbers yet estimates of total production are in the 50-60 range. Unlike George Brough in England, who relied on proprietary components, albeit of the highest quality, to produce his Brough Superiors, Crocker built almost everything in house, including carburetors, with only items such as magnetos, spark plugs, wheel rims, tires and other accessories being bought in. But unlike George Brough, who had few serious rivals and whose exclusive products commanded a commensurately inflated price, Al Crocker was forced to compete with the much larger Harley-Davidson and Indian. The result was a crippling loss on every machine sold. Al Crocker's last throw of the dice was the 'Scootabout', a stylish motor scooter, around 100-or-so of which were sold before Crocker finally pulled the plug on motorcycle production in 1941. The Crocker star might have burned but briefly, but during the late 1930s it was by far the brightest in the American motorcycling universe. Equipped with coil ignition rather than the more common magneto, the Crocker 'Big Tank' twin offered here was purchased at a Chicago auction in September 2000, at which time it was stated that Mike Lange had worked on the engine's restoration. Since acquisition the Crocker has been on display in the vendor's private museum in the UK. The previous owner was Thomas M Baer of Janesville, Wisconsin, who had acquired it from fellow Janesville resident, Donald B Tucker (see old Wisconsin Certificate of Title on file). Accompanying documentation consists of the aforementioned Title, operating instructions and various papers relating to its purchase in September 2000, including the Bill of Sale. It should be noted that a defective valve has caused the rear tire to deflate and that the machine, which is sold strictly as viewed, will require further re-commissioning before returning to the road following its lengthy sojourn on static display.
