Guys, guys..........I go away for a little bit and the pic forum turns into a cesspool of politics, REALLY ugly women, and repeat pics.

Here's what's been occupying my time. Not so random, but better than some of the recent crop of images. Not mine, but some are similar to what I have.

It's a fake. There are lots of this sort of fake out there. You can see pics where the celeb is wearing an opaque shirt at an event, and later see the same pic where it's suddenly transparent.

BTW, the best pics of her are her on the beach in a white bikini tossing a football around. Yowza!



There's a whole series of these.

I think JB should be on "my list". For you folks that watch/ed "Friends".

That bottom Merc is pretty cool, but the DTM cars are so over the top with their body kits that they are a bit weird to me.











someone explain to me how the photo below came up in a search for "sunoco camaro"

Beautiful bikes. Used to have one like the red one and would love to have one of the black version!

In college I rode a Honda 50. With the fold-down handlebars. Darned thing could easily be placed in the trunk of a car. Even a small car. It looked way too small for two college guys to be riding, but it would wheelie easily that way. Tires the size of large donuts.

I want a Norton 850 Commando.

That's a Hodaka "B". My first real motorcycle was the earlier version called an Ace 100. It used to go through 'shift springs' all the time. When they wear, you'd miss a lot of shifts.

Yup, Hodaka Wombat.
My brother had one of these super rats when I was real young and i wanted one so bad. When I finally had enough money saved up from paper routes and from fixing the neighbor's cars (at 13 years old ) I bought my first bike, a wombat. The super rat and the combat wombat were both competition versions of the street legal bikes.
Couldn't sleep the night before. One of the best days of my life.

A friend had a Hodaka and every time we would go out to Mojave to dirt bike I would grab it.

Sup, I heard the 750 commando is the Norton to have... not sure why.
