Show some Class

We are very happy to be offering ShowClass Magazine for sale in our store. Issue Five is available now and future issues will be in the store when they drop. If you've never checked it out, do yourself a favour. Amazing bikes, sleazy women and great tech articles, ShowClass is the punk rock of chopper rags but lacks neither quality nor substance. We have a bunch of extra goodies up for grabs, so there will be some freebies with every issue of #5 until they run out. Check it out in the store. We can ship but if u are local, you know how to hit me up.

Thank you Gen!

My friend Gen and I started a magazine swap. I send him the best rags North America has to offer and he sends me these crazy right hand spine Japanese magazines. I have to say I am very impressed with the quality of these mags, from paper quality to photography and advertising. The Japanese do everything with such class and style it is very refreshing and inspiring. Thanks again Gen! Hope you enjoyed your package.

Spiked

I found this scan while browsing the Knucklebuster 1939 blog and just had to repost it. Harley KR ice racer with insane spiked tire, with these long shit winters up here in Canada, ice racing is really a past time i should look into taking up.
