    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Spent the day Saturday with a good friend participating in the cycle world rolling concourse at the Indianapolis motor speedway. It was an amazing day at a historic location on my 78 gs550, that I call "old reliable" (because she's not pretty but she'll get ya their)..... lol
This photo is at the Pagoda (back side of start/finnish line)....
 
Sorry no photos.... better at bikes then this stuff.... too big of file size.... oh welll...
 
Use photobucket or similar to convert them to a reasonable size.
I would like to see some pics.
 
Man, what a day that looks like. Crazy amount of old Japanese bikes, fantastic, thanks for sharing.

I will post an invite for next year if anyone is interested... but next year I will be on my 83 Yamaha xs650h... its a numbers matching all original bike [with 1006 mi.] that was my dad's... http://i1348.photobucket.com/albums/p735/kickstartxs650/20130813_150144_zps57885be2.jpg
so if you have a nice stock or custom, or a daily beater like me I hope you set a date for this next year!
 
Part bin special!

Part bin special!

The '65 350' you mention is an interesting blend of a '66-'67 X6 basic chassis, tank, etc, with a '73 T350 engine and an undetermined disc-brake front end, Yamaha maybe, can't be a T350 front end graft-on, they never came with disc front. Could be a '77 GT250 front, those came with a disc.

Also, I would guess about 90% on here would know about the RE-5 Rotary. almost did Suzuki in!

Thanks for the great pics, barn.
Seems like a bit of everything at that show. Not just Japanese.

I have always liked the spoke pattern on the Heritage special. Your bike looks terrific!
How did your dad not spend the entire time with the front wheel in the air with that massive top box. lol.

You're using the wrong Link code

See that Link box next to your photo?

Go down to the IMG code, click on the code, it will say Copied

Then paste it here
