Great stuff from the Packard Auto Museum courtesy of Ted Guthrie.


Here's Bruce, with a German-made Horex moped, which he just unearthed. The little putter features zero miles, having never been fueled. Bruce himself is well-known for his restroration work on Indians and numerous other brands, as well as his extensive collection of BMW's and other German bikes.






This sculture, which sits in the lobby of the museum, not only shows the design of Packard automobiles' famous hood ornament, but also lists some of the manufacturer's innovations in the auto industry.






Here's a couple of real oldies. Just visible to the left is one of the first Packard automobiles ever produced. It runs - regularly.




Check out that gorgeous Indian sidecar rig. To the right is one of the Packard family's personal cars, dating to the 30's, plus two 50's-era concept cars in the back.





Another fabulous Indian. Look closely and you can see that the pinstriping and the tank graphic are all hand-painted. Big Packard limo in the back.





Check out these two Ariels. Square Four in the front, and a twin behind it. Fabulous restos.





Cool, Maico streetbike from the 50's. Get a load of all the interesting features. Leading-link forks, all-enclosed bodywork, gorgeous paint & graphics, crankcase induction, big, comfy seat, bar-end turn signals. Also, how 'bout the chicken-coop-find BMW R25 behind and to the left?


There is much more to see at the Packard museum, plus they are preparing to open a huge addition. Note that the motorcycle displays run from January - April, each year. For more information, go to: http://packardmuseum.org

Kawasaki Ninja ZX250RKawasaki Ninja ZX250R

At first, manufacturers have been producing Honda VTR 250 in 1997 when the market is increasingly targeted at the domestic production for the Japanese market. And after all these years, the Honda VTR 250 eventually exported overseas, especially to Europe with the course design tailored to the desires of local consumers.

So Honda VTR 250 was made of this. With the aim to make it look sexy and powerful tight, this new motor using V-Twin engine 90 degrees, and 4 valve liquid-cooled. Here there is no difference between the bore and stroke it with previous versions, VTR 250 Interceptor 1989-1990 sold in America.

And it seems the two motors are increasingly using the same machine. It was perceived as sufficient capital to compete with the motor manufacturer, Kawasaki, Ninja 250 R. As is well known that the VTR 250 Honda engine has a power equivalent engine Kawasaki Ninja 250 R, which is about 30 hp at maximum torque 10,500 rpm.

Yet there has been no official confirmation of the price for Honda VTR 250 in Europe. If the manufacturer Honda really intend this to menarungkan motorcycle Kawasaki Ninja ZX 250 R, it's likely there will be a price range around USD 5900 or USD 64 million or more (excluding taxes)

2009 Sportster XR1200 Harley Davidson

New Harley-Davidson 2009 Sportster XR1200 Picture Wallpaper


In the end of 2008, The Harley Davidson released motorcycle sportster platform in Europe which called as Harley-Davidson Sportster XR1200. But it didn't take Harley long to mend its ways and announce the release of the XR1200 in the U.S at early 2009, the company is banking on the enthusiasm of the hardcore nostalgic motorcycle fans.

The Harley-Davidson Sportster XR1200, listed with an MSRP of $11,179, wears a brawny 90 horsepower, air-cooled V-twin, beefy brakes, and a dry weight of 551 lbs. Many costumer has said that the Sportsters, for the most part, don't quite convey as much bravado as a Dyna or Road Glide.


The 2009 Harley-Davidson Sportster XR1200 injects some steroids into the lineup with a more powerful engine and aggressive suspension setup. Starting with the traditional air-cooled pushrod 1,200 cc V-twin, Harley has bumped the compression ratio to 10:1, added performance cams, precision-cooled cylinder heads, a large capacity oil cooler and downdraft electronic fuel injection.


The combination of quality rubber, lightened rolling inertia courtesy the wheels, 59-inch wheelbase and stout fork, the Harley-Davidson Sportster XR1200 turns in easily and stays on target all the way through your chosen corner arc with stability and confidence. The Harley-Davidson Sportster XR1200 available in three colors :


Actually, the Harley-Davidson Sportster XR 1200 is based on race-winning XR 750 dirt trackers that were popularized, ironically, on U.S. soil. It's designed to fit the average height European customer, but we can't help but wonder if this market-specific model would ever be modified for sale in North America.

The XR1200's Nissin brakes are significantly upgraded from standard-issue Sportsters, with four-piston 292 mm dual discs up front and a single-piston 260 mm disc at the rear. In running order, the Harley-Davidson Sportster XR 1200 tips the scales at 580 pounds. These brakes are nothing short of spectacular and should be grasped with caution should you take advantage of an XR 1200 demo ride and are expecting the usual Harley brake.


If you see the instruments on the Harley-Davidson Sportster XR 1200 are minimal. Watching the needle bounce around on the good-sized, round, white-faced tach is what you’ll mainly see. A compact digital speedo on Sportster XR 1200 body is centered next to it on the handlebars and the digital display makes it easy to know exactly how fast you’re going. A dual trip meter and clock have been thrown in for good measure.
