Honda Other description
awesome, 1-of-a-kind custom Motorcycle with Sidecar with a 50's retro look! And it still gets over five miles-per-gallon! I call the bike the quot;Dog Hoggquot; because I built the sidecar so my wife and dog could ride with me. It has been my daily driver for a long time, and it so convenient with the storage space available in the sidecar and so stable so I have no concerns about slipping and sliding in the rain. The base motorcycle is a 1995 Honda Shadow A.C.E. (American Classic Edition)--1100cc engine, liquid-cooled, with a super-reliable shaft drive, easy heel shifter and lots of upgrades. I have owned the bike since 2001 and have loved every 2nd I have had it. It has always been reliable and always started for me--it is a great cruising bike! The ACE model was the Harley-fighter before Harley patented their sound, so it rumbles like a Harley and the Cobra slash pipes make it roar like 1 too. The paint is Lexus white pearl with gold fleck and PPR copper. There is also a nice silver metallic pinstripe around the scallops. The fabric on the seats is white vinyl with a faux ostrich leather and it is super durable and very comfortable and has good quot;tractionquot;. The fabric on the waterproof tonneau cover for the sidecar is a strong waterproof vinyl pre-owned in sunshades. The base sidecar was a Velorex 562, but if you go to their web site(velorexusa.com) you will see mine is highly modified (for the better). The passenger compartment was expanded to accommodate my dog and wife so I decided to upgrade the whole thing. I went from the stock 1/2quot; axle to a larger 1quot; axle with upgraded suspension for a better ride. I also added a sturdy 5-bolt hub that accommodates a 12quot; trailer tire, so the traction is much better than stock, and it allows for much higher speeds (I cruise at 60-65 on a daily basis). The fiberglass was reinforced, the frame was reinforced, and I added an LED cateye taillight, cool LED turn signals, and a fender light as well for safety and visibility. The seat has a nice rake so the passenger can relax, but there is also storage behind the seat and the integrated luggage rack--this is a long hauler! The tonneau has multiple snaps and grommets to keep it down while riding if there is no passenger. Included in the sale are 2 helmets (one is a Large, the other a Medium) that were custom painted to match, a repair manual, and a matching fabric rear back rest that I just never felt the need to put on but had made. (BTW I have maintained the bike mostly by myself--I am a hardcore gearhead). The bike isn't perfect--I use it often, so there are nicks here and there, and a 2-inch gash on the sidecar fender thanks to someone's saddlebag when I parked it with other bikes (I filled in with touch-up paint). There is minor surface rust on some of the components like the speedo and rear fender rail, but it only adds a bit of patina to the ride--nothing is critical or looks excessive. It isn't a trailer queen, and I have priced it as such. I hope you ride this every day--it is just that much fun! The bike upgrades include cobra jet kit, cobra slash pipes, new front forks, triple light bar, kurakyn grips, white-wall tires, large adjustable windscreen, brand new battery, etc. I always use AmsOil, and am religious about maintenance.

Mystic Mac's 2014 MotoGP predictions
Thu, 06 Feb 2014There is no real off season in Moto GP. Although we complain about being starved of racing, for those at the sharp end, in little more than two months they have new bikes to assemble, team staff to put in place and sponsors to nail down that will pay for it all. This time frame is also tight for riders, as it seems more every year go straight under the surgeon’s knife after the last round and spend the short winter recuperating for the season ahead. The 2014 Moto GP championship looks like a cracker as apart from the ten full factory riders we now have at least eight non factory riders with properly competitive machinery. We also have five Brits on the grid, two with podium potential. Whatever happens though (providing you have BT Sport) you can just sit back and enjoy watching the incredible Marc Marquez do things that shouldn’t be possible. Speaking of whom, I didn’t believe a Rossi replacement would come this soon. And when I say replacement, I mean a rider that is the full package. Although in some ways quite different to Vale, he’s an equally phenomenal talent plus a very likeable character that appeals to the masses and although respectful to his rivals off track, deadly competitive in the heat of battle. Being young and good looking he’s obviously a dream for sponsors and the sport in general. Marquez has evolved in his own way but thankfully into a perfect replacement for our sport when the VR steps down.
