Vintage bikes on youtube
« on: November 15, 2011, 11:09:49 AM »
 I'd like to start this thread to index some of the footage seen on youtube. If you have seen a vid on there you would like to share, here is a spot for it.
 So... in no particular order:
 Let's see if this works!

 
 Boardtrack racing slideshow - http://youtu.be/BydVOzqumTs
 
 Cult of the Cafe Racer - http://youtu.be/GvWBXHRIauA

 Cafe Racer build off - http://youtu.be/Fv1OivjQdRc
 Two bikes purchased and built in 12 hours, for less than $1000 ea. My vote goes to the little Honda twin.



 Boardtrack Big X Excelsior start up - www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsiW6zvLQ1k
 Turn up the volume for this one! The sound of this beast gives me chills!
 Contains period FILM CLIPS of board track racing.

Awesome bike Fritz.  Need more like that rather than the concours types that are around at the bike shows.

I remember seeing that at the last CMS I went to in Abbotsford; 2006?  though I (mis)remembered it as 100cc  rather than 50.  It was like $5000 and wasn't street legal - but it was cool.
