Ghost Rider

No, it’s not been in a horrible accident, this is the Yamaha V-max that replaced the Harley in the second Ghost Rider film. It takes a lot for Americans to change an America classic for a Japanese cruiser, but the V-max is an incredible machine, menacing, iconic looks, producing more than 200hp from the 1,700cc...

Another sunny day in March

How quickly it goes from blowing off "the cobwebs" to "I think my bike could do with a wash". It was another sunny Mach day, so I took the  a wee run down the coast. Heading for Greenock and sticking to the coast road, it has lovely views of the mouth of the clyde. Ending... Continue Reading →
