    And now for something COMPLETELY different...

    in my role as Area Manager for Sulco tools.. i sometimes stumble on a number of unique establishments ..


    today was no different...


    my phone rang early this morning and it was a KB'r from the old days ..

    "SARGE!! come see me .. need some tools .."


    "cool... see ya about lunchtime"

    set the old TomTom to the coordinates and away i went..


    pulled up at an old looking warehouse .. my mate came out and asked me inside ..

    im thinking .. ok.. heres where i get robbed and raped


    no such luck though.. inside was a VERY large area FULL of THESE


    yup.. soon to be available in NZ.....

    Cafe.. lifestyle accessories.. custom bikes..


    my friend called it The Temple of Enthusiasm.. from what i saw inside i believe it ..

    look to be opening sometime soon.. still building the shop and i have been asked to keep the location a secret for now but it looks like a cool shop..



    oh.. Big Dave .. they do Triumph Bobbers ...

    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    they are for the most part based on the Yamaha SR400, but they do the Triumphs and Moto Guzzi and BMW cafe racer style.. all are road legal apparently.. the shop in Oz has a few Indians and HD's done up as Bobbers from what i saw on the website

    ive been asked to keep it under wraps so they can get set up.. these guys seem pretty passionate about it and want to do it right
