Misc bikes

Went to the AMA practice in Sonoma Tuesday, free admission (thanks Yamaha). Saw a few bikes in the pits that I thought I'd share.

There is a rear brake lever and cylinder, I would have to guess that it is a suicide clutch (left foot) and a jockey shift. NO front brake.

Old skool fer sure.

Just cause I figure I might not be the only one who had to research what all that meant....

Yup Old Skool, but it looks like an evo Sportster seeing that the chain is on the rightside, would be interesting to see how he rigged up the foot clutch and Jockey shifter.
With the hard tail and spring seat my bet would be he isn't thinking of the Iron Butt Rally anytime soon.
