Due to the high volume of orders and my schedule as a full-time student, I will need more time to ship your orders.
All orders will be shipped every Sunday. Please have all your orders be in by Sunday 8PM EST.
I will continue to check my messages daily and will respond within 24 hours.
I will also continue to accept/send out invoices daily, also within 24 hours.
Please, please keep requesting invoices. This will help keep things moving and if my schedule permits, your order might even be sent out before the shipment on Sunday.
Sorry for any inconvenience but this will allow me to continue to put up new items for you as frequently as possible.
“Built for Speed – Race Inspired Motorcycles and Art” is the title of Michael Lichter’s 14th annual “Motorcycles as Art” exhibition in Sturgis this August, which for the second year in a row, will be jointly curated by Michael and Paul d’Orleans of the Vintagent. ‘Built for Speed’ is sure to impress visitors with a beautiful and thought-provoking display of motorcycles and related art, the race-inspired theme making connections between motorcycle racing and custom bike designs inspired by racers. Each custom bike in ‘Built for Speed’ reflects a branch of racing; Speedway, Flat Track, Drag Racing, Board Track, Grand Prix, Land Speed Record, and will be displayed beside the racing machines suggesting the origins of each style.

The Musashi team completed 214 laps to win the endurance race.
In a world where modern motorcycles are full of computers, sensors and plastic, there are still those folks who yearn for the days of yore. A time when motorcycles were made of metal and you used a wrench — not a keyboard — to make your bike go faster. Careful and skilled craftsmanship, along with independent thinking, is a mark of pride among these men and their machines, some of whom are featured in the video below by Gestalten.tv.
