Vintage Motorcycle Days 2007 – More Photos

By Paul Crowe

1950 DynaCycle

Vintage Motorcycle Days has so many cool bikes on display you forget to take photos of everything but I thought I would put up a few more from the ones I took.

The photo above is a 1950 DynaCycle, which won the American Best of Show award. Owner Don Dungan restored it. The engine is an add on unit for a bicycle like so many earlier motorcycles. I just noticed while looking at the photo, doesn’t that look like an inverted fork?

Many more photos below:

Yamaha Street Tracker

This is a nice example of a Yamaha 650 street tracker conversion which seems pretty popular. I like these bikes which seem to be a lot more common on the American side of the ocean due to the flat track racing over here, I don’t think there is the same interest in these in Europe or Australia, though some of our readers from those countries can correct me if I’m wrong on that.

Norton Commando VR880

This is a 1973 Norton Commando VR880, one of the units produced by Kenny Dreer. They really have the right look and occasionally you’ll see one of these up for sale. I can’t imagine a Norton enthusiast not wanting one of these beauties.

1952 Moto Guzzi Falcone

Just a nice clean example of a 1952 Moto Guzzi 500cc Falcone. You see bikes like this all over the place at Vintage Days.

Then Came Bronson Sportster

This Sportster was either a replica or a restored original from the TV show “Then Came Bronson.” They didn’t make a note on the display which it was but it looked exactly like the one in the show. Goin’ down that long lonesome highway …

One of the neat things about looking at the bikes in a show like this is how many ideas you get about potential projects or seeing how someone else did something you were thinking about doing. Neat stuff.

    Does anybody have any idea how many Kenny Dreer bikes there are out there?
    and how many NortonAmerica prototypes?
    Either has been my dream bike for years now

    Wow, that Commando and the Falcone are beautiful. More so the Commando, they really got the design right there!

    Re the yammie 650 downunder – we used to race one in a speedway outfit. A GREAT engine. There are still plenty of these bikes amongst the enthusiasts, and several good oz websites devoted to them.

    I’m with Paul on the 1950 DynaCycle, looks like an inverted fork to me too….hey, wait a minute, is that fuel in the frame, and, geez, with the motor under the rider and low, we’re influencing the cg in a proper fashion – heck, we’re an inside out brake rotor from the first Buell XB! ‘Course it looks better than an XB…….
