This is not really a forum post, I just needed a place to hold some photos. Move along, nothing to see...

Looks like someone went to Backfire?

Yup, Col and I went to check it out. Pretty neat, lots to look at.

That Honda CX500 is pretty sweet. I had one of those, albeit a bone stock one back in the 80's. That BMW looks like would be a handful. What is that anyway?

I think it's a K100, or it's a close relative. There is something about that giant hunk of a motor that I like. Thinking I might build a custom one some day.

This example caught my eye the other day:

Just did a little research on the K100. Its nickname is the 'flying brick." Seems appropriate doesn't it? :)
