Ducati cucciolo - Rapida
Este é uma das minhas clássicas. Como podem observar esta equipada com um motor Ducati Cucciolo (Ducati T50) a 4 tempos 48cc e o quadro foi fabricado pela Rápida em Olhão (Portugal) em 1954... Possui 1.5 HP com um consumo de 1 litro aos 100 Km, 2 velocidades com selecção manual e embraiagem banhada a óleo.. atinge facilmente os 40 km/h mas não mais.. é uma autentica raridade pois apenas 30 foram construídas com este quadro e nenhuma é igual pois eram construídas a maneira do comprador e com o motor que ele quisesse. Restaurada por mim a 4 anos.
This is one of my classics. As you can see its equipped with a Ducati Cucciolo (Ducati T50) 4-stroke 48cc and the frame was manufactured by Rapida in Olhão (Portugal) in 1954 ... It has 1.5 HP with a consumption of 1 liter per 100 km, 2-speed with manual selection and clutch bathed in oil .. easily reaches 40 km / h but no more .. is a genuine rarity since only 30 were built with this framework and no equals since they were built the way the buyer and the engine he wanted. Restored by me four years.
1915 Henderson Motorcycle Model E
1915 Henderson Motorcycle with modern rims and tires. It has later 1918-19 front forks, which is all I had at the time. I will change these when I paint later. This bike was rebuilt to ride in the 2010 Motorcycle Cannonball which I did not participate. Runs beautifully, with plenty of power to climb hills and get up with traffic. Wonderful ride!
Historic vehicle Torpedo V4 1909
http://www.facebook.com/historicvehicles
Motocykl vyroben v jediném exempláři v letech 1908-1909 firmou Trojan & Nagl sídlící v Kolíně. Pravděpodobně nebyl nikdy prezentován na veřejnosti a o jeho dalším osudu nejsou žádné zprávy. Neobvyklá konstrukce o objemu 1600 ccm je dána zdvojením dvouválce téže značky. Dochována pouze jediná nekvalitní fotografie, ze které se vycházelo při stavbě repliky.
Motorcycle was made in a single copy in 1908-1909 by Trojan & Nagl, from Kolín. Probably has never been presented to the public and his fate isnt known. Unusual design of four-cylinder engine with capacity of 1600 ccm is given by doubling two-cylinder engine from the same brand. Only one low-quality photo survived from theese times and it was used to build a replica.

1947 Indian motorcycle startup and ride off (Alec MacKaye)
Alec MacKaye starting up and riding his 1947 Indian on the mean streets of Washington, DC. Throttle is on the left handle bar, right handle bar is timing advance (twist it and the distributer moves back and forth witch advances the timing), clutch is left foot pedal, rear brake is right foot pedal, and the front brake is the right handle bar level like current motorcycles. This guy bought this bike 25 years ago, before they were cool.
