A software developer (C#), a biker (VP of TOMCC), Physics nerd (BSc), likes board/rp games (TTRP), Hawkwind (PXR5), Abruzzo (IT), and is an international superstar (ok, maybe not).
If you ride a motorcycle then you're ok in my book.
Modern classics are machines that echo the design of the Classic era but have modern components such as eFI. The Royal Enfield Classic 500 is one such modern classic. #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #royalenfield #classic500

Another well known name, the Kawasaki Ninja has been through many changes over the years. I don't think that screen is stock, and the colour scheme isn't that exciting. #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #kawasaki #ninja

Adventure bikes are usually not designed to go off-road, but this Triumph 800 XCx definitely was. It can even cope off-road with a pillion (as I can testify). #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #triumph #tiger800xcx

Occasionally you see a rather neat bike but have no idea what it is. Case in point here. What is it? #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike

This is rather colourful, the BMW S1000R has a detuned S1000RR engine (shame) but is this an explosion in a paint factory or cool graphics? #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #bmw #s1000r

You don't even need to have a middleweight to live the sports bike life. This is the Honda NSR250R in all its 2-stroke glory (I think it's an MC18). #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #honda #nsr250r #2stroke #sportsbikes

You all know I prefer middleweight Sports bikes - I can use more of their capability on the UK roads than I can with a litre sports bike - well this is the Honda CBR600F-1 (Hurricane in the US). #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #honda #cbr600f #hurricane

Couldn't resist another Triumph. The Speed Twin (now the Speed Twin 1200) is possibly their most popular modern classic model. #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #triumph #speedtwin

Enough of dull... here's some Italian Red. The Ducati Supersport 950 to be exact. #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #ducati #supersport950

...and if you're not a fan of black and rusty then perhaps a Bobber with a hint of colour? #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #triumph #bonneville #bobber

If you aren't a fan of chrome, then there is always the Black option - like this Bonneville. #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #triumph #bonneville

There's quite a bit of Chrome on this Triumph, if that's your sort of thing? Too much polishing for me..🙂 #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #triumph #bonneville

Some designs seem to last forever with even later versions deriving from the success. Such is the Yamaha XJR1300 - an excellent roadster that handles well. #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #yamaha #xjr1300

Who doesn't love a Fireblade? Especially a first-gen model like this rather tidy 893cc SC28 CBR900RR. #motosky #motorbike #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #honda #fireblade #cbr900rr #sc28
November 15, 2025 at 7:28 PM
Maybe this might be more up people's street... apart from the helmet in the handlebar. A Kawasaki Z650RS in red of all colours. #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #kawasaki #z650rs

KTM has had a few financial woes of late - they aren't that popular in the UK. This is their 790 Duke. #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #ktm #duke

BMW certainly produces a decent litre sports bike, though the styling seems rather Italian on this S1000RR. Lovely in red though. #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #bmw #s1000rr

Some motorcycles have a lot of promise, but just don't get the sales. The Triumph Thruxton never really caught on and this was the end of line Thruxton RS. #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #triumph #thruxton #thruxtonrs
November 11, 2025 at 6:50 PM
This is quite a popular machine in the UK - the Yamaha MT-07 Tracer. Thoughts? #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #yamaha #mt07 #tracer
November 10, 2025 at 6:23 PM
Time for something green - and there's really only one brand you think of... Kawasaki - this being the Ninja 1000SX. #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #kawasaki #ninja1000sx
November 9, 2025 at 9:53 PM
There are still a lot of Classic bikes in use, rather than mothballed for investment. This is a rather nice Triumph TR6 Trophy 650 - the single carb version of the Bonneville - an entry-level classic. #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #triumph #tr6 #trophy #classic

Another day, another Suzuki. This time it's the turn of the GSX-S750 naked. A capable machine, but possibly a bit boring? #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #suzuki #gsxs750
November 7, 2025 at 8:23 PM
Another day, another ER-6F. Pictured at WhiteWays which is now closed, undergoing renovation, and under new management. Hope the new kiosk is as good. #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #kawasaki #er6f
November 6, 2025 at 7:49 PM
You do see quite a few cruisers out and about, such as this Kawasaki Vulcan S - a 650cc Sports Cruiser. #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky #bikersky #motorbike #kawasaki #vulcans

It's happy new book day! Just received Legenda by the inimitable @drjaninaramirez.bsky.social ... and it's got her graffiti in it too! Looking forward to reading it. #booksky #womeninhistory #newbook #europeanmyths #history
