Looks like fun, Ricky. Be safe and happy travels. (n/t)

the "killing machine" vette gets my vote for the awesome ride of the day >
though I still kick myself for not buying the 6.6 TA when I had the chance.

The fuzzy dice in the 'Vette would have to go...
In the Camaro, fine. But fuzzy dice in a 'Vette is like a yellow rubber strap on an Omega Speedmaster.

Of course, both are easily rectified.

Personally I thought it was a nice touch.
I talked with the fellow who drives that 'vette for a few minutes, and he's definitely not one who takes himself or the car too seriously.

BTW, despite the semi-wild looks the engine is pretty much a bone-stock stovebolt smallblock. But, of course, there's nothing wrong wi' that!

Unless my eyes deceive me.. the second bike..
is a Kawasaki W650 custom job (the overall look says cafe racer, the tires scream bobber. and the IOM disk, well..) W650 has been re-released this year in Europe as an 800 to compete with the modern Triumph twins..

You may be steam driven, but you keep up with your thumpers!
I like the tax disc with the Isle of Man emblem in it. The style is that of DEUS out of the land down under, as evidenced by their old logo and the tires. They are a curious choice, to me more retro poser than real cafe rubber. A cool bike nonetheless.

Technically not a thumper, since that term is traditionally reserved for single-cylinder bikes.

But I couldn't agree more there, on both points!

Duh! Brain fade. Sorry.  (n/t)

Its been a long time since I was into motorcycles actively..
but like watches, once the bug bites.. Biggest problem for me with biking, is I;m stuck in a time warp, just can;t get into the modern stuff (ok, the new Bonneviles and such excepted..) The current crop of sport and cruisers leave me cold..

I took it for a Triumph! But looking closer..
