For Lazy but like to be Polite

I have mentioned before that if you go to some kinda bike rally, you will end up giving peace sign or waving whole time to other riders and your shoulder is gonna get tired soon while you are riding.

I really thought about making some kind of automatic waving device, or quit waving all together. ( Mitch is against waving to other riders, by the way.)
I guess some people thought the same thing and came up with this mirror. I have spotted this product while I was doing research for Japanese stuff so it is sold in Japan and meant for left side traffic, like Japan, UK, Australia and such. It is about 15 bucks, and says it is imported. It doesn't say from where, though.

It seems like they are selling it as "Rock, paper, scissors" mirror, but I did not see any "rock" or "paper".


ところで、日本からの皆様 愛読有難う御座います。

I have seen them in pictures but not in film. It is like a nudy bar and a bike shop. Very boner inducing for a bike show. I am surprised not to see any dollar bills on the floor. I think this is from somewhere in Europe so should be Euros?

Tron Light Bike for sale

Wednesday, December 1, 2010 | 0 comments

The movie "Tron- Legacy" will be in theaters in a few weeks.

If you are a motorcycle enthusiast like us, you must have wondered once or twice about how it would be like to ride the Tron light bike for real.

I guess everything is possible if you got money... lots of it...This bike shop in Florida, Parker Brothers Choppers has managed to build 10 of street-legal Tron Light Cycles for you to own.... each bike features a steel frame, fiberglass bodywork and a V-twin engine from a Suzuki TLR1000, brakes and other functional bits in there required to make them street legal. The bike weighs 474 pounds and is just over 100 inches long and 23 inches wide. The shop is selling them for $55,000 a pop, now only four Light Cycles left as of 12/01/10.



Though the bike looks like it drove straight off the movie screen, it’s not a replica or recreation since the Light Cycles in both Tron films were virtual. “We basically used the images we could get off the web in order to make the bike,” said Halverson. “Keep in mind, no one ever made this bike before.”


Well, you can complete the look with the Tron leather suit if you like...

The bike is not as agile as the one in the movie, obviously...

warning: the music sucks in the video.

Wish the photographer focused on the bike rather than the girl.

A web commercial for motorcycle part company British Customs. The commercial was shot as part of a complete redesign and rebranding for the company which included a new website, catalog and photography.

Not a big fun of the music they used. Better than death metal, tho.

Tohatsu PDK58

Tohatsu was originally named Takata Motor Research Institute, was founded in 1922 and manufactured railcars. Research and development of high-speed, portable engine generators and radio-controlled generators began immediately and were brought to production in 1930. During the 1930s and 40s, Tohatsu consolidated its product line and moved its corporate office to Tokyo. In 1950, production and sales of motorcycles began. 1955 brought aggressive growth to Tohatsu. however, just like other company, it has withdrawn from motorcycle industry. Relatively had short life as a motorcycle manufacturer, but the company is still kicking manufacturing outboard motors and fire pumps.

Picture here is PDK58. In front of bakery.
