That is cool, but could we talk you into a picture of your brother's bobbed Indian?

If you're into old Indians and what not, then you've heard of my brother as the community isn't that big and he is occasionally featured in magazines.

Here is the the bike he rode that year.

I don't know for sure if I've seen that bike before or not, but it sure is a nice example. Thanks a bunch.

My brother sand casts all kinds of short run stuff for old motorcycles and customs which is why his name and photos of his stuff crop up in magazines.

Very interesting, are those cast floorboards on the Indian? Maybe kicker pedal and tail light also?

I love old bikes but I REALLY love seeing supermoto's on the street! I want to see your Husqvarna!!! I would like to have a KTM 500 EXC with an extra set of street tires/rims to swap back and forth as my next bike.

Years ago I broke my back and that injury eventually caught up to me. As a result, I haven't been able to ride since the end of 2006, or what is basically the very beginning of on board videos.

Anyway, let this video stand as reason enough to not close your local race track in order to keep the expert class off of the street. Anyway, we planned this little clip to be the splash menu for a home-made DVD featuring track clips where the menu appears in the lower righthand dark area. Looping on the DVD, it turned out awesome.

That's not very smart to do on a public highway. Scoopem up with a shovel.

Some very talented people who can do those stunts. Wish they'd not do it on public roads. Then maybe their parents won't have to bury them. I know from personal experience its something no parent wants to live through.

Learning how to do stunts is pretty easy--especially on pit bikes--and we're both in our late 30s when we made that little video. That said, public roads are boring because you really cannot go very fast and because of that, it is impossible to learn how to go fast on public roads. That's why we took our antics to the track in the first place.

That said, because of the danger involved, in my opinion there is no motorsport that is as unhinged as the Irish Roadracing series which is run on public roads where there is little forgiveness when a rider crashes. The Irish Road Racing series makes paying the bill for all the BBC channels worth it.

Check it out.
