About this blog

Man and Machine have become inseparable, and when it comes to automobiles this association is even stronger, so much so that some people actually give names to their cars or bikes.

I’ve spent 24 years with my motorcycles and gathered some knowledge in the process, so I thought that this knowledge should be shared and spread.

New posts and suggestions are always welcomed & appreciated.
