We go from not featuring a FN in a few months to having two within a few days. Somehow, this AS 24 is even cooler than the vintage FN single featured earlier this week, thanks ot the interesting design and the military functionality.

View Post2013 EBR 1190RS Carbon Edition
In 2011, Erik and his company, Erik Buell Racing (EBR), decided to get back in the sportbike game with a bang – the EBR 1190RS. The RS featured a powerplant that produced 175 horsepower just shy of 10,000 rpm, and it weighed less than 400 pounds wet. This is one of the extra rare Carbon Edition models.
In Canada – 2011 Confederate P120 Fighter
It’s a love-it-or-hate-it kind of motorcycle (I love it, at least the looks), but you can’t deny that the Confederate Fighter is distinctive. This example is slicker than your average as the seller has put a lot of thought and money into handling some of the more ‘boring’ aspects like the cooling and electrical systems.
Guess That Bike – WWII Edition
Reader Bob K was at the National WWII Museum in New Orleans this weekend, where he saw this bike. Can you guess what it is?
1939 Harley-Davidson Big Twin Sidecar
The seller calls this a U/ULH because the motor is from a U but it has ULH barrels that were bored .20 over. Either way, he’s had the three wheeled rig since 1969 and it’s claimed to run and handle perfectly after a ‘complete refurbishment’ 5 years ago. Hope you like red!

View PostAudio Intermission – Handbuilt Podcast with Paul d’Orleans
As if Alan Stulberg and his cronies didn’t have enough to do with running Revival Cycles and the Handbuilt Show, they’ve started a podcast. Their first guest? Paul d’Orleans – aka The Vintagent or the guy whose last name no one can pronounce.
1914 Fabrique National (FN) Single
Gun enthusiasts will recognize FN as a Belgian manufacturer of a wide variety of guns – my favorite of which is probably the F2000 bullpup assault rifle. But between 1901 and 1967, they also made some motorcycles, including the world’s first four-cylinder bike, and the single you see here in front of you.
In Italy – 1939 Taurus G27
I really struggled to find more information on this bike, and I’ll be really impressed if one of you guys or gals knows more about the Taurus marque. At this point, all I’ve got is that it’s Italian and that a few years back, someone tried to update the marque to modern times with a custom based on a Royal …
In Germany – 1953 Triumph Speed Twin 5T Custom
Built by BERHAM Customs out of Berlin, Germany, this Speed Twin has been bobbed on the original frame and I think it looks pretty damn good. What do you think?
