Fabio Taglioni’s most sublime creation. The Ducati 916. Released in 1994 it has the most pure lines that could outline Ducati masterpiece.

What better way to celebrate the Britishness of a burly 1200cc Daytona than to wrap the bodywork in the red, white and blue of the Union Flag. Unfurl your patriotism and twist the throttle until the deep rumble transforms into a high howl. Hang on! Things are about to get exciting!

More JD shenanigans. This time artist Steve Dillon brings the big guy on his Lawmaster to speed.

Some photos of Harleys and DKW’s taken by my riding buddy Dean during his recent visit to the National WW2 Museum in New Orleans. Based where the Higgins Boat, or LCVP, we’re built. These were the landing craft that brought US soldiers to shore in every major amphibious assault of World War II.
