1979 Yamaha Super-Rat YZ400

This motorcycle is from 1979, this YZ is from a time long past when the only four-stroke dirt bikes around were low-riding, rack-toting farm bikes. This Yamaha YZ400 has a refresh that has brought it 30 years into the future of today. As much as I like the look overall we can dig into this motorcycle from the front to the back. There is no fender which is cool and even though I could not pass inspection in Utah, I would ride it. I love the dropped handlebars. I did not know that the gauges were actually mounted in the headlight, … Continue reading

Red Rim Bobber Motorcycle

This is a really nice motorcycle. Let’s just talk about the look on this post and skip the engine. Yes there is a lot of chrome and all and the naked exhaust pipes are short and do look stunning. It is a rigid frame with a springer front end. The red and black on the pint really sets it off for me.

Normally I am not a fan … Continue reading

X132 Hellcat Bobber Motorcycle

Some might have seen the X132 Hellcat before made by Confederate Motorcycles. If you have not see it nor have ever heard about it let me go over a few of the specs on it. The cost for what you see below is $50,000 bucks, yep that is the cost. It is super fast and has some serious muscle in the 132 cubic inches (2,163 cc); 56° Fuel Injected V-Twin engine. I love the aggressive styling of the gearbox and the naked exhaust. I would be worried that I would burn my leg but that is why we are supposed to … Continue reading

Harley-Davidson Kick Start Bobber Motorcycle

Ever now and again I find an old bobber like this. I think this optimizes what a bobber motorcycle is. A true bobber has the front fender removed and tossing everything that is not needed along with cutting the rear fender. When you check out the paint job it has the old school look that we all want with a classic motorcycle. I am in favor that the older the bike the rougher the motorcycle needs to be. If it is as perfect as the day it was made and the motorcycle is 60 years old then there is an … Continue reading
