What to do when you have summer holiday……..

This summer I managed to lure my family to go to two motorcycle museums, this time in Sweden. I will post some museum bikes now and then.




Always look out for the Swedish locals; some of them jump out in the road.





First stop was Eds MC og Motor museum.

Some interesting racing machines:


1958 Norton Featherbed, Norton M50 crank case, homemade cylinder and a lot of handmade stuff. 350 cc.




Also a `58 Featherbed special. Modified ES2 engine boosted up with Jawa crank and rod.




A Matchless based road racer.

Salty Dollar

I got this link from a friend in US….A French team preparing a Dollar/J.A.P.  for the Salt Flats.  A great idea! So I bought a T shirt to support them. You can do that too, click in:

It is important to have your favorite things on the dashboard.
