kevil and perry

Her we go vida-lovers...livin' la vida loco and then some. I have discovered a new perversion...1st was ageing honda 750/4s, then sportsters became my fix...now it's all about airhead beemers.

This one was built by Kevils speed shop, just down the road from me in Devon; google 'em, he does some great stuff with these old boxer twins. This baby looks like it should be tooling around So Cal, not an 80s autobahn.

There'll be plenty more like this- and maybe even my own...watch this space!

Same shirt, diff'rent day

Guess who's been playing on the blogger template design page? whaddya reckon? makes a change from black 'n' flames...tho' that's not always a good thing. More pics coming soon.

HELLO WORLD !!!!!


Crikey- it's been a while, huh?

I have been a busy bee to say the least.

I think it's time to share a little cafe goodness with you all, friends. I've kinda missed the blog thing to tell the truth. See ya round?

Oh yeah, I did forget all my login stuff, and even how to load pix. It's all come floodin' back!

The sporty's sadly gone- to a good owner at least. More next time...

Lastly- cafes are definitely flava o' the month at vida. Especially airhead beemers. Oh yes. One will be mine. My local Halfords are quaking in their boots already.

THE LOOK

That's what I'd labelled this pic when I originally nicked it- now I see why. Cafe- licious.

I really should be revising!

SPRING BREAK


Guys- life is crazy right now, as you may have seen vida has been pretty quiet lately. In the next few weeks, I have final exams in my degree, my wedding in early june, and the 'normal' needs of a young family and full time job- so the blog will be 'lying low' for a while.

I will be back in 4-6 weeks or so.

Hopefully,with tales of a successful engine build, new projects, and a focus on more original material you lot haven't seen before.

THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT. PEACE OUT!

EVERY OTHER BLOG

Sure, every other blog - except from my select compadres on the reading list to your right, of course - post the same old pictures of same old style the whole time. You know, hot rods, tats, hot rod girls with tats, and Dice - style bikes.

Yawn.

Well, even vida can do one once in a while!

GIRLY BIKE


Of course it's not ( a girl's bike, that is) but a real BIKER'S BIKE like all proper sporties. Whether you dig or don't dig the marriage of sportsbike USDs and 3-spokers with the stock XL frame, you have to admit this is a class ride which would be a blast to hoon about on. That seat unit is just spot - on.

Of course I'd never ride it, it's GREEN ferchrissakes!!!

NEW TRUMPET


Here's a crackin' Hinckley bonneville - I'm tempted to say who needs oil drippers!

EVOOOOOOOO

Nice bobber-style treatment on an evo big twin. You can try and appease the purists - which never works - or just do your own thing and have fun.

NICE CHALFONTS

A kool seat certainly finishes a bike off nicely - having said which, it's the last thing I spend cash on. I bet this one cost a few bob, but how smart is that?

COMBINATION

Of all my motorcycly quirks - perversions even - none is more disgraceful than my interest in sidecars. Except possibly the one for trikes, which I am also strangely drawn to. Here's a wicked fat jap chop(looks like an XJR 1200 yam from here, maybe FJ) with a nicely-streamlined chair to go. Go on, admit it, you would...
