...Meanwhile Back In Paradise...

While we freeze our butts off in Japan, some of us are getting busy in Hawaii.  Old school Puch tuner Lance is in the middle of a sick Maxi Rigid build.  If he builds bikes like how he builds his cars, we are in for a treat.  Can't wait for the finsh product:

Hawaiian Chopper!!

In the middle of Winter...

We are currently in the middle of Winter season here in Japan.  All moped production are currently on hold.  I am not accustomed to shelving projects because of the weather.  Unlike in Hawaii, you can wrench and ride all year long.  I can't even hook up the new d-restricted Estroil pipe on my ZA50 Gila!!  Got to wait till Spring I suppose....zanen :(

European Blog Site

A friend of mine veedubh20 turned me onto this blog site called TuningMatters.com.  It's a European based blog about scooters featuring product reviews and event happenings.  They have tons of videos of their drag circuit, events, and custom shows that take place all over Europe.  Their scooter building community is huge with top notch bikes and events.  Also check out the other blogs listed on their site.  They're kick ass too!!

Tuning Does Matter!!

We made the mag!!!

Another Kick A$$ Issue!!

December 2012 edition of Moto Champ Magazine reviewed last month's 16th Scooter Meeting 2012 at Akigase, Japan.  It was an awesome event with lots of fast bikes and fun people.  A great experience overall (check out my previous posts for a full review).  AND LOOK WHO MADE THE MAGAZINE:
