Here’s an engine. Do you know what bike it powers?

Congrats to RoHorn, who was the first to identify that this belongs to a Yamaha Fazer (specifically a 700)!

Congrats to RoHorn, who was the first to identify that these forks were from a Bimota KB2 Laser!

OK, RoHorn made my last “Guess That Bike” post seem too easy, so this time I’m trying something a bit more difficult. Here’s some nifty forks that are set up for quick changes – do you know what bike they’re attached to?

Hopefully this one strikes the right balance…

Today I visited my buddy Daniel Schoenewald (remember the Picture Intermission from his collection?) to catch up on a few things, and he had a few new additions for me to drool over. Here’s a little piece of one – can you identify what it is?

Congratulations to Roger, who was the first to identify that this amusing phrase is from the tail section of a Yamaha SRX 250! The US got the SRX 250 for one year only – that version was white/red with a fairing: The Japanese version ditched the fairing but it shared the frame and the 17-hp 250cc 4-stroke single. It also …

Every once in a while we get a Japanese import over at Iconic branded with some sort of marketing phrase that didn’t get a proper translation. Here’s one of my favorites – do you know what it’s from?

No hints on this one to start with – do any of you know what prototype featured this stabilizer?
