Drysdale 1000 V8 Will be Rebuilt in New Form After Theft Recovery

By Paul Crowe

After the article on the Sutton radial, I was contacted by Ian Drysdale. Ian has been a busy guy with a lot of amazing projects currently underway. Among the many things he mentioned, one really got my attention, the Drysdale 1000 V8 sportsbike that was stolen some years ago, was recovered and it's back in Ian's workshop, though, unfortunately, it's had a rather rough life … [Read more...]

Engrich ART Motorcycle with a Fully Balanced 360 Degree Parallel Twin

It began when Marek challenged himself with almost impossible goals, followed by absolute personal commitment to learning and doing whatever it took to get the job done. This project … [Read more...]

Completely Transformed Honda CB350 is a Very Creative Resto-Mod

By Paul Crowe

Restorations to like new condition are always nice to see, but sometimes it takes a creative mind to envision something a little different and in this case, the owner pulled off a great transformation. Starting with an old and tired 1970 Honda CB350 with a seized engine, he stripped it down to bare metal and began again. A new single shock rear end was fabricated and it … [Read more...]

Rimar Motors 600cc 2 Stroke V-Twin Project

By Paul Crowe

Rimar Motors, in the Netherlands, is in the advanced stages of machining and assembling a 600cc 2 stroke, V-twin engine, designed to be installed in a 2004 Aprilia RSV1000R frame. The project has been going on for about a year and they've put up detailed photos of the entire process. The engine uses reed valves and two counter-rotating crankshafts. Cylinders come from a … [Read more...]
