Zitat von Lee im Beitrag #91 First thing I noticed was the extra inboard tail light- I believe they only came with two on each side originally. Good looking car! Frank

Zitat von Duckbubbles im Beitrag #92Zitat von Lee im Beitrag #91 I missed that. Sometimes restorers will add the third light on full size cars if they was a lower trim level car look like a Impala. I don't think any of the med year Vettes had the three light setup.

Years ago, a friend had a beautiful red split window. Only 4 tail lights. I wonder, with six, if he also made them sequential? |

Here are some photos that I took today in and around Alice's Restaurant that might interest you.

Check out these contrasting motorcycles that saw at Alice's Restaurant today. The first one appears to be a 1962 Honda 125cc Benly Super Sport CB-92, with some production racing parts on it. It was ridden up by a 6' tall Chinese lady. Also, attached is a photo of a 1962 Honda new product press release that I found in the February 1962 Cycle World magazine.

Here are photos of a couple of interesting cars that I saw parked at Alice's Restaurant yesterday. And as a contrast, I will toss in three photos of a fancy new Lotus, but I have no idea what model it is.

The Lotus is either an Elise or Exige. Elise is a convertible and the Exige is a hardtop. Same chassis. Looking at the picture it looks like a removable hardtop, so likely an Elise. Very light, nimble cars, but REALLY difficult to get in and out of. |

Zitat von Chubs McFun im Beitrag #98 I was also told that it might be a Lotus Evora.  Lotus models names don't exactly spring off of the tongue.

Here are photos of three motorcycles parked at Alice's Restaurant yesterday that I found interesting. The first one is a Husqvarna 401, a reskinned KTM 390 Duke. The second is a Honda VFR1200. (I think. If I am wrong, let me know as these models are relatively rare in the U.S.) The last bike is a Ducati 959 Panigale, at least that is what is claims to be on the fairing. On the other side of the bike's frame was a fancy Ohlins rear shock reservoir with lots of dials to play with.

A friend has downsized to the Husky 401 Svartpilen now he has turned 70. He seems to like it, although not done many miles due to Covid.

Zitat von wessie im Beitrag #102 When the VFR1200 came out I was very interested. Then I saw the reports of the weight and fuel range.

Zitat von Richard230 im Beitrag #101 Am I reading that right? Are those two companies connected? I see a big H on the engine case.
