Cafe Racer Magazine had their annual Readers Ride-In Bike Show yesterday.
Was at a park near their headquarters in Sewickley, PA, which is a few miles west of Pittsburgh. Had excellent weather.
My 50-year-old 1969 Suzuki T350.

A Triumph Thunderbird Sport. A modern-classic version of the Trident that Triumph sold from 1997 through 2004. Would like to see Triumph sell them updated with FI & etc.

A sweet Honda CB77 Superhawk. The owner has two of these & is quite an expert on them. That’s an official Honda race seat. He had the carb holders cast when he was an instructor at Penn State University.

Nice bikes. Not so sure about the exhaust on the snowmobile engine being very practical. Probably go deaf in your right ear? The rest of the bike looked interesting, including the automatic power coupling. What a unique bike!
Wouldn't mind riding home on any of them.
