    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Now that looks like a fun bike to ride
    To see a life newly created.To watch it grow and prosper. Isn't that the greatest gift a human being can be given?

    I wish I could. The bike is referred to as "The Menkel Wing" and it was built in either Germany or the Netherlands.

    The exhaust pipes are made by a company in Germany and are called: Exzorcist.

    I never thought I'd be bowled over by a 'wing, but that is soooo cool. Roll on a 6 cylinder version (ahem... with a supercharger!)

    Thanks Jim!

    That's a very cool piece of kit. It's got nice lines and not too much gaudiness.

    Sorry, misread that. Thought it was "The mental wing".

    My bad.


    Nice to see a 'wing which has evolved into something a little bit out of the ordinary.

    I'm pretty sure we have already had this converstation??

    The ONLY late model bike I really really wanted 'back in the day' was a Gold Wing Cafe racer at Eric Woods in chch. It had Dunstal meggas, a twin head light bikini fairing, Laverda Jota 'adjustable' bars, rear sets and a single seat all in red. It was a little less street fightery than that one and a whole lot more Grande Tourer and very very cool....

    Then there was the Two Brothers Valkarie.. Twin Porsche superchargers hooked up to twin downdraught webbers vertically mounted with the intakes over the top of the tank and six straight pipes. More power than a fireblade...

    NOW thats a power cruiser......

    I think there was a thread on here a while ago that referred to this gallery. Some pretty cool bikes I reckon.
