"BRINGING OLD BIKES BACK TO LIFE." THAT'S WHAT THIS SITE IS ABOUT. THE THRILL OF HEARING THAT OLD ENGINE START UP. THE JOY OF FINDING THAT HIDDEN JEWEL IN THE CORNER OF AN OLD BARN. AND MOST OF ALL, GETTING THEM ON THE ROAD AGAIN. WE ARE ALL ABOUT MOTORCYCLES, FROM RADICAL CHOPPERS TO STOCK BIKES AND ANYTHING IN BETWEEN. BRANDS MEAN NOTHING HERE, WE ARE ABOUT RIDING AND WRENCHING.
Be sure to check the site resources section to the right. Remember to visit our forums and chopper tech section. This will be where most content of the site is located. We want this to be a great technical and mechanical resource for any old bike or chopper enthusiast.

Future plans include scanning in hundreds of old chopper and bike mags from the 60's, 70's and 80's. There are tons of cool stuff and tech articles in them, and let's face it, documentation for old bikes can be hard to come by. As with all great sites, we need your support! If you have any advice, articles, diagrams, guides or anything you think others would find helpful, please submit them so we can post them on the site. We will be an ever expanding resource for those who love old bikes.

Right now, we are saving up money for a special scanner for scanning magazines. After the scanner arrives we will begin scanning and archiving the magazines.

Billy Bike and Ner A Car

I snapped this at the Anamosa motorcyele museum. The first is a replica of the "Billy Bike" from the movie Easyrider. The leather jacket is also a replica of the one worn.

This thing is awesome. It's a Ner A Car. Look this up online, it's real neat. They were made as a cross between a car and a motorcycle. It was suposed to be less crude, they advertised them as something for women to ride on in the long dresses of the day.
