Honda XL 350 description

For sale is a one of a kind board track racer tribute motorcycle. This rascal is a head turner and show winner!!! No real motorcycles were harmed in this build. The frame was built by entirely hand built by Speed-Machine Motorcycles in Minneapolis. Yes, they can build you one to your specs. No cheap cut up bicycle frames going on here. The motor is a dead stock Honda XL 350, rated at 17 HP and 78 MPH stock bike. . No cheesy 50cc china girl motor. 530 chrome X-ring chain. The wheels are 23" Honda dirt bike wheels with non-DOT Mitas ice tires for shows. Included with the sale is a set of speedway (knobby) tires for common road use. The ice tires are imported from Europe and too expensive and hard to get to wear out on the road. The headlight is a 1907 Dietz kerosene lantern modified to accept a 4.5" 6 volt fog lamp. All plating is nickel, as was appropriate for 1915. Internal throttle and reverse clutch lever. Coil is hidden inside faux magneto. All cloth covered wires. Brass grease gun on backbone is designed to simulate the oilers on original total loss engines, but now serves as choke. Seat is a Greg Hunt made Mesinger reproduction. Rear tail light is a 1905 Lucas carbide bicycle tail lamp from England converted to LED. Please note details like the Olds head badge and the patent plate on the right side cover. These are the show winning details.

Yes, it runs and yes, it is peppy. I've only had it to 60 MPH. There's more in there.
No, it's not comfortable.
Is it street legal? It has a head light, brake light, tail light and a license plate. Let your conscience be your guide.

This bike was built to show and create conversation. It has done both VERY well. It was invited to show last winter at The One show in Portland, Mama Tried in Milwaukee, Full Throttle Biker Build Off Invitational in Florida, the Handbuilt show in Austin, the Bikes at the Brewery show in LaCrosse, and Garage Brewed show in Cincinnatti. It was first place in the Vintage class at the Biker Build Off, Best of Show at Bearded Lady in Minneapolis, Motorcycle Best of Show at the Swan City show and People's Choice at the Brewtown Rumble in Milwaukee. It has won a pile of trophies in local shows. The feedback has been quite overwhelming. Ride in and watch the cameras come out!!!

It has a transferable Vermont registration. Vermont does not issue titles for vehicles 15 years or older. A title is no problem, just sign the registration and send it to your DMV. Attach a note asking they search the "Polk" book for the regulations and print the page from the Vermont DMV website about their title policy.. They will send you a title. It works in Wisconsin. Or you could do what I do, just send in Vermont's fees every year and keep it registered in Vermont. I'll just transfer the registration to the buyer. Vermont doesn't care where you live, they just want the fees.

2013 AIMExpo: Skidbike

Mon, 21 Oct 2013

One of the most inventive devices seen at this week’s AIMExpo is the Skidbike, a novel creation that helps teach riders the skills to balance and to master threshold braking. It’s a Swedish/American invention originally designed to educate riders how to sufficiently apply brakes to avoid an accident without the danger of tipping over and causing injuries. It uses an electrically operated hydraulic ram built on a hinged dolly to reduce front-tire grip, which drastically reduces speeds when traction is lost so riders can learn how to use the brakes effectively.

Maverick Vinales Quits Blusens Avintia Moto3 Team

Fri, 19 Oct 2012

Maverick Vinales seems to be living up to his name, announcing he is leaving the Blusens Avintia team despite sitting second in the Moto3 World Championship with three rounds to go. Vinales traveled with the team to Sepang for the upcoming Malaysian Grand Prix but did not take part in Free Practice and later announced the split. You may remember Vinales from last season when he raced in the former 125cc Grand Prix World Championship for the Paris Hilton-sponsored Blusens-BQR team.

AMA Pro Racing Announces Basic Twins Flat Track Class for 2014 Season

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

AMA Pro Racing announced a new class for Flat Track racing designed to provide a new stepping stone for up-and-coming Pro-licensed racers, replacing the Pro Singles class in 2014. The new class, to be called Basic Twins, is more or less a revival of the Basic Expert Twins division that ran during the 2007 and 2008 seasons, but dropped when the Pro Singles class was introduced for 2009. The new class will give young racers a chance to showcase their skills on Twins, easing their transition to eventually enter the Grand National Expert Twins class.
