British Motorcycle Gear

Long Beach Vintage Motos

I grabbed just a few vintage motorcycle shots at the Long Beach show last weekend.  There were quite a few vintage bikes there, but there were also many other interesting things to photograph.  Here are just a few.

A Husky dirt bike. Very cool. Love the colors.
A Vincent in the MotoDoffo exhibit. The Doffo Winery has an impressive collection.
There were several Kawasaki two-stroke triples, all in pristine condition. Joe Gresh, eat your heart out!
A very classy BMW boxer, which the larger-capacity fuel tank. These are stunningly beautiful motorcycles.
I had to include this shot, even though it’s not vintage. It’s the new 650cc Royal Enfield twins. Royal Enfield has out-Triumphed Triumph. I can see one of these in my garage.

Like I said, there were many more vintage machines at Long Beach this year, and what I included here is just a small sample.  It was a grand show.

Okay, one more…of little old me reflected in one of the Royal Enfield fuel tanks.
