I certainly will be heading your way to explore a little more outside of my normal box haha - If I can help on on Race day when you roll into town, just let me know. I will try to help anyone - just let me know what you need.



ST has an interesting sound to it. Nice looking bike.

Spirit of America did have an unbelievable exhaust port. Looking down the lines of the vehicle, I'm reminded of a shark.

I couldn't capture the contol cables, but the tape and freyd cable ends are there. Surprised this this could even run without RLET's

Thank you Pterodactyl - if I can just get you to like my Subaru WRX - Have to work on that next Smile

For the record, I never saw dUh with a backwards hat on..or any hat on for that matter.


Are you two ganging up on me? Lads, I've got nothing against the WRX, per se; they are fast, reliable and very sturdy. In fact here in Australia they are, without question, the premier vehicle of choice for the discerning ATM ram-raider. dUh, this is in no way a slight against you - they normally use other peoples WRXs and often forsake the baseball cap (backwards) in favour of a balaclava.

However, getting back to on topic. More good photos of the museum. There must be some real gems of motoring history around the walls and on the floor of that place. Another place in the States I would like to have a look at is the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame. Pickering OH I believe so it probably isn't far from your place ferret, or Indianapolis for that matter. There is a small exhibit there dedicated to a man whose history has always held an interest for me, one Harvey Mushman by name (sometimes). Home town Indianapolis, rough beginnings, some flaws, made good, motor and (real) motorcycling enthusiast and rider. A real bloke gone before his time.

Cheers, and no using Google.
