Retro Moto Wish-List

Some retro-moto bits that I’ve come across that sparked the I want urge…

Austin Vince Custom Vintage Overalls!
Custom made by the man himself!  Vintage overalls in the colours of your choice.  I’m thinking blue with red and white stripes

~$400Cdn




Bell Bullitt Retro-modern Helmet
If you’ve seen Rush then you know the look, and this modern remake of the classic Bell helmet catches it.

$432

 

 

 

100mph t-shirt ‘ton-tee’
Triumph looking logo but advertising the ton instead of a specific company… nice!

$30

 


Vintage Race Fairing
I might be doing this a bit backwards, but I love old race faired bikes.  A 1970s Honda CB750 would get turned into a race replica and make an ideal vintage racing machine.  It all starts with a fairing!

~$200 (fairing)


Spartan Leather Vintage Race Suit

A tailored suit with race quality materials and armour.  As they say, less ‘Ricky Racer’ than your typical TRON styled current racing suits.  

$950+$260 in armour upgrades

 

 

I’m enjoying my current Kawi garage a great deal.  Fixing up the Concours and riding the Ninja is a good time, but I suppose we’re all rooted in the aesthetics of our youth.  As a child growing up in rural England watching the height of the British motorcycle industry roll by in the early nineteen seventies, I tend to return to that look and the associated nostalgia.
