That smell....

[Fisty]

.... leathers, motorbikes oils and petrol all fused together as you swing your leg over the bike.

Is'nt it absolutely fucking awesome?

Ye, especially fresh petrol, and fresh 2stroke oil.
Not sure about the leathers

I was about to post a topic on this! I love the smell but all my mates think it's disgusting or "odd"

One thinks it's the smell of stale sweat ooookkk then. I love the smell though it reminds me of biking and that first time you got on a bike. My rucksack smells of it aswell now

The smell of burning Castrol from a cold stroker is lush. Even my (non-biker) housemate likes a whiff!

My RX-S sounds gorgeous. I love the smell of my leather gloves. I regularly shove my nose inside them

As fred Dibnah once said "If only I could bottle that smell"


there is just something about it....

I love the smell of leather.

Just if it rains you end up smelling like a gimp.

Its pronounced Jixxer!

[Blau Zedong]

The shed where the YR5 lives whiffs of petrol and 2T oil. Utter lush.

Having said that the outhouse smells nice when a hot gixxer 750 is locked in after a good caning.

weirdly i find different bikes smell different.. not counting 2strokes but 4s.. maybe its the gaskets and combination of nasty chemicals in the oil?

got textiles myself, and when it rains they smell like a 2month old corpse stuffed with prawns behind a radiator.

i love the smell of it all nothing does it more for me than a man smelling of petrol and oil etc yummy hence why i love my partner spending time in the garage hehehe

[Kitten]

I think I posted a little while ago about men smelling of oil and engine stuff in general. . . I have to agree, it's great.

Also Speedway smells good

Now you've gone and reminded me of my old 2 stroke.

Nothing better to annoy the neighbours with than starting her up in the morning and seeing their frowning faces as the smoke cleared

ummmmmm 2 stroke

I love the smell of the bike after a ride on a warm day, I guess it's the smell of burnt oil/WD40 etc on the pipes and warm rubber from the hoses but it's cracking.

[Louise]

[kitten_84]
