Japanese biking behemoth

by Lee on 1/9/2009

Hardy little Hondas are all well and good for work, allowing the rider to rapidly weave through the winding streets with his wares.

When it comes to the weekend, however, something bigger and far more bold is best, like this far from modest machine for example.

But, it would seem, such big bikes require equally big personalities.

Along with similarly big bellies.

There's also the option of following Tokyo Times by full feed RSS, and now Twitter too.

Nice find and shots Lee, and like him pointing at your lens in particular.

Taken with the new D300? I feel I can see the difference.

Yeah, but to be honest Jason, splashing out on the Nikkor 85mm 1.4D AF lens too has made a huge difference. A bit pricey for sure, but well worth the money.

Very cool capture. I guess that’s riding in style!

Some great pics. I like trikes, so much more refined than quad bikes.

I watched The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift last night and certain as I am that the film is 100% factually correct in every detail, any posts you might like to make about cars in Japan would be entirely welcome.
