If you keep an eye on yourself you can see your moods change and why. I’m going to cruise over to Cabana Dans next week. I need to cover his final pieces for his restored 1914 H-D Twin before they head to Tim the Flat Earth pinstripper in Spearfish, SD. I’ll sneak into Tim’s shop and shoot the action. I’ve made serious progress on the VL, XA, FL-5. We made a set of pipes. Next week I will make controls and bring you a complete report. I received a bicycle GPS speedo for the Salt Torpedo. Snowed the other day and might snow tomorrow. The Redhead is out finding a chunk of metal I can machine for the Knucklehead, so if I’m stuck inside I can still make progress. I’m working with the Deadwood Historic Society on fixing up the basement under the Bullock Hotel. They want to go with a Vice theme, so I suggested this print of Kat Von D with my touring chopper built with Jesse James. Join the MRF and stay up on the action, or keep coming back to Bikernet for weekly reports. We will fight for the truth forever. — Bandit Click Here to Read the Weekly News only on Bikernet.com The Bikernet Weekly News is sponsored in part by companies who also dig Freedom including: Cycle Source Magazine, the MRF, Las Vegas Bikefest, Iron Trader News, ChopperTown, BorntoRide.com and the Sturgis Motorcycle Museum. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Riding Free for 25 years.

Hey, Life is full of options. Hell, try to buy a couch, a computer or a refrigerator. The options will kick your ass. Options can be daunting — Especially if you have a list of dire projects looming over you like a gray sky. Ah, but the other option is to reframe your list into something very positive, full of love and accomplishments. Keep up the fight for Scientific Integrity and the freedom to ride and build what you want, goddammit.

Click Here to read the latest Weekly News only on Bikernet.com I receive numerous inspirational quotes from brothers here, in India and from Ray in Australia. I enjoy them, find solace, comfort and inspiration in seemingly troubled times. Here’s the odd aspect and I say this a lot. These are the best of times. We have access to more technology, health benefits, knowledge, travel, bike parts, beauty, wealth, love, peace, you name it, than ever before. So, what do we do? Except for Bikers, folks are depressed, killing each other, fighting, slappig their ol’ ladies around, screaming that we are doomed… Bikers represent all that’s good in this world by building more loud-pipe, cool choppers and riding free forever. Every time a chopper or loud-pipe performance bagger blazes down the street, put your thumbs up. That annoying bastard knows what life is truly all about. Ride free forever! –Bandit * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * NEVER RIDE UNAWARE ! Simply Subscribe to Bikernet’s Weekly Newsletter. Its the motorcycling news you can use. Click Here to know!

Click Here to Read the Weekly News only on Bikernet.com Hey, This week we published a piece about the state of the Chopper magazine market on Bikernet. As usual, when we delve into a topic, shit gets crazy. It’s the nature of every industry. Fifty years ago, life was simple, but exploding. It’s still exploding. You know and face it daily. Go buy a refrigerator. Now there are a thousand options, sizes and brands. Hell, try to buy a new pair of jeans from Wrangler. Okay, so there are more riders than ever before, if we’re not banned tomorrow. Each guy or gal has their own style of riding and machines. Then we come up against technology including the internet and social media. Every time something surfaces it divides the market and with each new technology we have opportunities and obstacles. Let’s hit the news. — Bandit * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Click Here to Support Freedom – See Membership Options for Bandit’s Cantina x

If you’re into football, you’re on the edge of your seat. If you’re into chopper building, you’re on the edge of your bench trying to make shit happen. I’m sorta on the edge of my seat over several elements of this year. There are new book projects, movie and TV efforts. It’s going to be damn exciting with new builds, going to the Texas mile to test the Salt Torpedo, then to Bonneville hopefully. Let’s see how the world works through the following week. Think Freedom, it always works. –Bandit Click and Support Bikernet.com for the first streamlined trike landspeed record
