Wanna roll a "meeting" with these guys into the trip Felix?

 

[Felix]

Mmmmmmmmmmmmm NICE!

Hell yeah I do! Their website is a little thin on details.

Felix

 

[spooph]

They just became official April of 2009.... Once I know your dates, I'll set it in stone.... Dreamgarage.com credentials come in handy...

 

[Felix]

Done and done!

Oh and new laptop background found...

Felix

 

[spooph]

fo real!

 

[Throttle Rocket]

Nice find Spooph ! Very interesting stuff. Wonder why they're deciding to drop Triumph ?? Legal issues ?

 

[spooph]

Maybe availability? It's easier to find an Enfield/Norton? I have no idea, but I will ask them when I interview them in the next few weeks...

And Felix, you gots info on that bike?

 

[Throttle Rocket]

Got any idea of what it's like to ride a hardtail motorcycle ?? I have no experience what so ever :-[

 

[spooph]

Painfull... The few I've ridden bucked me off within the first 10 miles... Beautiful, but kind of counter-inherant-design... A bike is made to be ridden...

 

[Felix]

Yeah its a Shinya Kimura from Zero Engineering, another 'minimalist' bike builder.

Thats not the bike, but its the stuff he builds. They have a dealer in Vegas

I really like those fat tires....

Edit: You know it's funny how the world works.... Japanese and Americans..... What would the world have been like if those bastards didn't drop the two bombs?

I'll tell you what, Harley's would never have become as expensive, and they might have designed a production OHC engine by now...

 

[Felix]

Haha yeah, life's full of 'ifs'.

Tell you what tho, we're going to have a wicked trip!

Felix

 

[spooph]

And need a lot of Red Bull, cause man, I don't think there's gonna be any time for sleep....

 

[Felix]

Hehe, no time what sooooo ever!

Oh and check this out, Mr Pitt is cruising around on something quite similar.

Poor guy. You know, I don't care who you are, if it has something to do with a moto, I feel for you. And that's a pretty bike!

 

[spooph]

Felix, screw Zero Engineering man, Shinya Kimura has gone and done his own thing, and come out ahead so much better... This dude is seriously inspired!

[Felix]

Yeah nice bikes hey... so where are they? Another place for the list?

Felix

 

[spooph]

I'm conversing over email with him currently. It's in Cali, and I think it would come down to coordinating schedule with Mr. Kimura... Add it to the list, no? Am I keeping track of places, or are you?

 

[Felix]

Did we end up adding this to the list Spooph?

Felix

 

[spooph]

um, he never wrote me back. I'll see if I can find it and we'll just show-up hooligan/uninvited like... I'll update the map if I find him...
