Roads are excellent for motorcycle riding in the Smokies and surrounding areas of N.C. and Tennessee. Home to Tail Of The Dragon too , but very crowded on the weekends. Many more great curvy roads in the surrounding area as well.

Which mountains ?

I'm 75 and keep an eye on my heart and sugar levels. Diabetic Type II, Cancer survivor , Covid survivor , Motorcycle survivor ( so far ) , and U.S. Army Combat Engineer survivor Veteran. I have dodged so many bullets in my lifetime , I know I'm on borrowed time. I appreciate every day I wake...

Kraft relocated about 5 years ago and sold their mass property in Norcross , GA. with huge refrigerated spaces to a local beer, soft drink & wine distributor , who promptly sectioned off half of the massive building and leased the other half to a movie studio out of California. I sold them...

We have " Green Space ", close to me. No need for a coffin. Keep you chilled until day of burial , wrap you in your favorite linens and drop you in the ground. Cheaper and better for the worms...

This shop looks very familar to the Vette Shop in Richmond, VA. , on Hull Street , especially the Nomad in the corner. It was owned by Bert Baer , who I contracted to bring my '56 Vette back to life.

How many bikes constitute a " collection " ? Asking for a couple of friends with 10 +. ]

You're joking right ? Compared to a Jag motor ? R-E-L-I-A-B-I-L-I-T-Y . Cost of parts and labor to rebuild. Unlimited Performance possibilities.

The thing about this Jag was the Chevy drivetrain and the pros that did the conversion. Pros through and through.

I came DAMN close to buying a Silver with Black rag top about 2 years ago with a LS1 Chevy motor and 4 speed transmission , converted by professionals , with paperwork . If the salesman had actually waited on me and moved it out of the tightly packed warehouse , I would have bought it that day...

If you can afford and keep 4 bikes , I would suggest adding the VMax to the equation. Short touring is fine. Gas tank limits your cruising distance without stopping , but when 2 up , my lady or I have to stop and pee every hundred miles or less anyway.

Seat , Forward Controls , Bracing of the Swing Arm / Forks /( USDs ) , Frame.

Great. I'm looking for an article / feature about a guy who street raced his VMax in New York , I believe. That article got me interested in the VMax motorcycle , so it must have been in the late nineties or so. It was a black , highly modded out VMax. I can almost remember his name but there...

Do you collect old bike magazines ?

I had a upholstery pro build one for me with newer , reshaped wider foam and a huge leather piece I found in his shop. It wasn't cheap by any means , but I can run on it all day.

Nice find !

I like your thoughts on a cafe racer , but can you or will you ride it full time or do you have something a bit more subdued in the stable ? I found my '98 quite a few years ago and love the new handling , brakes and look...
