In the early ’70s he created and marketed the Windjammer Fairing which was the dominate fairing for years until Honda knocked off Craig’s design. Craig was an inventor and designer whose secret was that the Windjammer was a one-size-fits-all fairing. The secret was that Vetter made high-quality and easy-to-fit bolt-on bracket and attachment hardware for most bikes....

  According to the Sonny Production LLC.’s (“Your Original Official Guide to Bike Week Activities) website (www.myrtlebeachbikeweek.com), “Bike week is NOT in the city of Myrtle Beach. There are no bike week events in the city of Myrtle Beach. Many think that the city of Myrtle Beach is the Grand Strand —it is not.

  I have been taking these photos for quite a few years now and Myrtle Beach has always been one of my favorite places to shoot pictures. I am always impressed by how friendly the girls are and how they’re not full of themselves. It can be a hard, dangerous job asking a pretty lady for a picture when her steroid-addled-boyfriend Brutis is standing next to her. Here’s my...

Dois-je aimer les motos de plus que les dames, ou vice versa? Cela dépend de la journée je suppose, mais aujourd’hui, je suis totalement en amour avec les belles dames de l’Expo concessionnaire Indianapolis et j’espère que vous l’êtes aussi. Heureusement pour nous alors que M. Cofano peut apporter le spectacle à un arrêt, avec une approche professionnelle et...

Here’s a quick cross section of what you’d find on a stroll through the show including Señor Jack’s favorite ride that’s conveniently also the lead photo. If there was a key and some gas in it, I think it would be back in his home state of North Carolina enjoying a life of liesure and high adventure that only a happily-retired guy like Jack can provide.

It’s very common that the world’s best events are short, fast events. The Quail Motorcycle Gathering in Carmel Valley, California, starts at 10am and ends at 3pm as does the Concours d’Elegance at Pebble Beach, California.

Normally Bike Week is celebrated the first week in March. This year’s Bike Week was moved back a week to accommodate the schedule change of the Daytona 500 which was held one week later this year. Good thing too as the weather could not have been dialed in any better. You can complain about the heat all you want but it sure beats rain and cold. For the next few days I will be...

The show visits 12 cities in four months as part of the Progressive International Motorcycle Shows. I am proud to announce that the 2012 Grand National Champion of the Ultimate Builder Custom Bike United States Championships in Daytona Beach, Florida, is Jeremy Cupp of LC Fabrications from Mount Crawford, Virginia, with his 1976 Harley-Davidson XL. The other big winner in the...

Since I really enjoy this part of my job, go figure, I had to call him out on it. If he tries that crap again I’m going to pull his green card. Send him back to France with his tail between his legs. I could have written the whole article in French myself in three words — Ooh La La! That pretty much sums up the Lovely Ladies of Daytona Bike Week. I put a lot of time and sweat...
