Backfire in Seattle - Jonz_imp - 03-18-2015

Saw my 1st CB not on the show room floor, but didn't meet the owner. Lots of cool bikes on a sunny eve. Here's a pic with a red bmw in-between us. Mine is the one with the 2 helmets on the mirrors.

As a Seattle native, I'd love to make it to a Backfire.
Mom still lives near Greenlake, and a sister near Northgate.
Ballard was my old stomping ground... back in the day, before it became "trendy" Ballard, ta ta!
Honda Lake City, know it well.

TINK of So Cal now!

PS
Used to drag race at Golden Gardens Park... back in the day.

That's a cool rack you have there!

Is it just me or does that BMW have a looong chain?

Two CB1100s--I have yet to see another in the wild.

Cool. That's a lot of bikes. What kind of event is it?

Next time leave a note on the seat that says "CB1100forum.com"

where did you get those knee tank pads?

RE: Backfire in Seattle - AndyHe_imp - 03-19-2015

Cool event... I'll plan on being there in the next couple of months if I can.

Backfire#52 March 18th, 2015 0ur 7th year Spring Opener! 3rd Wednesday of each month. Located in Ballard (Seattle), Washington. Focus on cafe racer, rat bikes, vintage Motorcycles, vintage Scooters, vintage mopeds. NOT cruiser focused.

Hmmm guessing the Cruiser crowd is feeling slighted? Lol

I am usually at this event, I didn't make it this time because the man was keeping me down. Hope to see some folks next time.

If you see a guy at Backfire riding a black Ducati Diavel and looks like he needs a haircut, that would be my brother.
