    Japauto 960 cc SOHC CB750 Honda 4 cyl. and Florida doppleganger

    An interesting read. The largest European Honda dealer builds big-bore SOHC 4 cyl endurance racers after the release of the 750-4 in Oct 1968, making this the 50th anniversary in Oct. of what was the archetype of what became known as the Universal Japanese Motorcycle (UJM)...

    south Florida strip-centric builds licensed for the streets

    This is a healthy bike owned by one of the customers, built at the shop. This is 'all-motor' & the power-adder isn't being used. As a bonus, you like old Suzukis, here's the Has Muth-designed Katana, pretty-radical for the time. This one is 'enhanced.' Another shop product.

    Irma Hurricane path past Florida

    My home is in a possible evacuation zone, but the evacuation hasn't yet been ordered. Looks like the hurricane will pass through the Straits of Florida, a bit to the south of Miami & the peninsula, but you just don't know until the event is about 24 hours out, where it heads. If it's ordered...

    Cheetah kit car in Florida

    Something interesting, not really anything for me, but I'm posting it to show what's out there. A replica body probably made in Indy, of the 1960's Bill Thomas Cheetah. With running gear, not sure why it only has a 3 speed manual tranny? Also the Chrysler 451 cu.in. engine I suppose is a...

    Florida Emergency Physician and EMS leader dies suddenly at 56

    This guy is going to be missed, because of his dedication to helping prehospital EMS be the best it can be. A game-changer kinda guy. From EMS services provision to EMS education, Dr. 'Sal' Silvestri made a huge difference. A few years ago, a program he was doing showed after a research of the...
