1982 Eddie Lawson Replica I found in storage

[viperg]

Congrats on the trophy! The Lawson looks great, at first, I thought that was yours on display...... Once again, thanks for all the great pics, you always do a good job with bringing the events back for us to enjoy. It looks like there was a nice variety of motorcycles. Looks like a fun trip.

When you get 100,000 vintage enthusiasts/riders together for a weekend it is amazing what comes out. Barber's museum contains almost, if not every, motorcycle ever made. There are also 400 bikes in the warehouse that get rotated into display. The Saturday auction has many rare machines that go on the block as well. Probably my favorite at auction was a Rickman Metisse.





A nice GS850 Cafe was found at the auction and sold for $4K!


This original 2700 mile 83 GS1100E was immaculate. The new owner purchased it from the swap meet on Thursday and showed it on Friday/Saturday.


My Favorite exhaust of the weekend found in the Museum parking lot. MotoGPwerks!


Some favorite big bore Hondas... 1100F.


Beautiful Z1!

That museum is definitely on my bucket list.

Steve put aside two days just for the Museum. I have been there several times and still cannot do it in under 4 hours. No to mention if you go during the races you can watch from inside the Museum itself. They change the museum displays often so they are always adding something new.

That Z1R TC gave me a bit of a woody

Yeah the TC1 is pure wood for sure. I have had the pleasure of seeing one pristine example running/riding in the 2012 Indianapolis Moto GP Rolling concours. They are sweet!

The only thing it did well is scare the hell out of you while smoking that massive 120 back tire. Sure looks good doing it though.

Thanks for the pics, Viper.
In one of the early pics there is a blue naked GoldWing.
Any chance you have any other pics of it. I followed the build on a Honda site.

Yeah it's a straight liner for sure! Blew up a lot of motors with that kit too. I read that Kawasaki would not even sell that bike with a warranty of any kind.

Murdoch,

Here you go! I loved this bike, very well done. A friend of mine is into wings and enjoys his supercharger kit.

That is one beautiful bike.

[steve murdoch]

It sure is a beauty.
Jim does nice work.
Thanks, Viper.

Jim (Nunzio) did a great job on this Goldwing. He lives in Atlanta now.

Larry, all you good painters stick together. haha.

The paint work on this Wing was stunning in person. I did not get to meet the owner but the bike was at the VJMC corral Saturday evening. Spectacular!

Yeah, he does great work. His airbrushing skills are jaw-dropping. He also did all my graphic work, replicating factory decals to a "T". He made the stencils to paint the ones on my S model and then sprayed them for me, too. I miss working with him.
