Downtown Historical Holly, looking south. Lots of bikes.
An Aprillia. Like the blue rims
I've never seen so many Honda 6 cylinder CBX's.
I thought this was a very tasteful Harley chopper, if those two words "Harley" and "tasteful" go together.
Flat track inspired all chrome/polished metal Triumph.
Harley choppers with pointie air cleaners. Is there a reason for that?
A study in contrasts. Traditional old school chopper (with American flag on sissy bar) with new school Triumph.
My trusty "chain saw of death", the 74 Suzuki GT250. The only comments I got were from the women saying, "I love the pink color." It's not pink, it's magenta.
This 4 wheeled vehicle was really slick. An open wheeled roadster powered by a Screamin' Eagle Harley motor. Well done and extremely well engineered.
Can you ever have too much chrome?
Moto Guzzi. Very nice in silver and red. It's Italian. You've got to have red.
And when you get so old you can't keep your bike upright, there's always training wheels.
Yes, that is a Harley motor stuck onto the front of the frame. There's a drive shaft that comes off the motor to power the rear wheels.
Honda's of every vintage and displacement.
A fellow chain saw. Suzuki 350 twin 2 stroke. Probably the same year as mine, maybe older.
And don't forget those Norton's.
Downtown Historical Holly, looking north.
On Sunday, October 7 2007, I attended the Holly Motorcycle Rally in Historical Downtown Holly. I don't know the actual definition of "rally". Frankly it was more "bring out your motorcycles from the garage." There was every brand you could think of. 50% Harley's and 50% everything else. The rally was hosted by H.I.M. which is a religious motorcycle club. Everything was free...show entry, coffee, donuts, fruit...you did get a little "religion" but hey, nothings free. I brought out the "chain saw of death" my trust 74 Suzuki GT250. Rode all the way to Holly and back again without missing a beat. A great day for looking at bikes overall.
This is either a Honda or Kawasaki 4 cylinder in a lightly chopped frame. A very nice job. But lettered on the side of the tank was "Hardly a Davidson".
