Popped along to the motor museum at Birdwood today and dragged the nippers and wife along. The weather was pants and the hour drive arduous but was pleasantly surprised at the content especially as I then realised 'out back' they had shed loads of bikes to gawp at.

Brownie points for naming them as was a little too hurried by wife to stop and stare too long. Brought a smile to my face when looking at a British or European bike all the way down under.

Mighty fine Ducati 750ss, makes me want the modern day version even more now.

I am a sucker for a cafe racer.

It was tiny! A 250cc race bike, not sure my fat middle aged ass would fit on the seat?

Sorry about the sun, this bike just had the strangest engine and exhaust set up. It was wider than a London bus. Oh, and fancy the pink colour scheme on a bike?

Sorry the photos were on the phone so a little blurry in the low light.

first pic:
leftmost is a triumph (probably T100 or 120)
middle is probably a dommie
rightmost (i think) may be a matchless.

the cafe racer pic is a commando with the optional racer kit that was sold ( althought is the side pannel does say norvil then it's a remake and can be bought new) but i would guess at 750cc

the one with the wierd engine (in blue) is a suzuki RE5 which has a wankel rotary engine

the monkey bike (i think) is a Z50A

the yellow one (with the big mudguards) is an indian (i think)
