my favorite Chinese motorcycle

the Chiang Jiang 750cc sidecar outfit. all of 22hp. slow but very reliable. great around town or on small state or county highways but don't get on the freeway with it. about 60mph top speed but will cruise at 52 as long as you can stand it. it is actually quite comfortable both on the bike and in the sidec...

Chinese Motorcycles

There are quite a few Chinese motorcycle manufacturers popping out over there. They somewhat tickles my nostalgic feeling; 60's of Japanese and British Motorcycles or 40's of BMW.

Remove me from your mailing list

I hate chain mails.A typical chain letter consists of a message that attempts to induce the recipient to make a number of copies of the letter and then pass them on to as many recipients as possible. Common methods used in chain letters include emotionally manipulative stories, get-rich-quick pyramid schemes, and the exploitation of superstition to...

GBR

the amazing George Bennie Railplane. 1935 an experiment with a mode of passenger transportation meant to replace the railways. it worked and was very smooth in operation. unfortunatly no one was willing to pay for such a thing and no more than this test track and vehicle were ever built or operated. powered by electrically driven propellors the...

I put it up in too strong a wind and was barely able to stop before running into a large deep ditch at the end of the road. I thought I was gonna die! or at least get hurt badly. luckily I...
