Sex On A Stick

Following Black Country Biker's blog link came across this throbbing steel and rubber sex toy, featured in Jerry Hartfield's American Racing Motorcycles book. A case of Less being most definitely More. BP

Vegas Speedway Sales

Thanks to Mark for the tip-off. These are at the auction that is held in the same Vegas hotel and on the same days as the Gene Romero Indoor Flat Track, this coming weekend.

I've never seen a Crocker speedway bike. Look how the front sprocket is mounted, with the driveshaft coming out of the frame. And that pie-crust Avon Dirt Track.

I hope someone with the attitude of the Blast from the Past guys (who actually race bikes of this vintage) buy it, but I doubt it. Some rich collector who hasn't ridden a bike in 30 years will probably snaffle it and think he's doing the world a favour by saving it. G

Mark's 1934 Harley-Davidson CAC Speedway Racer

Beeyootiful!

Gentlemen,
Here is a photo of a 1934 Harley-Davidson CAC Speedway Racer. Joe Petrali designed and built 12 of these in the H-D factory on weekends when regular production was stopped and with his own crew.
There will be one up for auction at the Las Vegas auction Jan. 6, 7, & 8th, 2011. I have heard there are no more than 9 left, maybe fewer.
16.5 : 1 compression, 500cc. The JAP motor's where too strong and this bike was discontinued after one year.
Can't wait for my order, see ya!
