Taken at the River Run in Laughlin, Nevada. Some of the bikes have over 600 CID and 600 HP, that would be quite a ride, hold on.

Lots of big bucks for these bikes and the paint jobs are great, thanks.

Some serious looking stuff there, buddy. Beautifully crisp photos.

Back in the '70s on a whim, I bought a small motorcycle (180cc) and kept it for about a year. It was fun, but we had a young daughter and the bike precluded family stuff like . . . . . . . . . . sailing. So bye bye Suzuki!

Amazing paint jobs on bikes these days. Just wish the owners would stick a helmet on their head when they ride out.

Love the '57 Chevy.

Nice bikes. That first one with the 502 cube...8.1 liter V8.....Chevy Rat motor....is something else. I'm not sure I could hold on tight enough if the throttle was cracked open fully.

Colours are very vivid.

we followed the same road sort of Jer, I had a Honda 90, cute little bike to putt around on but that was my final adventure in the bike field, too busy with cars I guess.

I guess some states have a helmet law and others don't. We sure see a lot of them in SD, MT, WY and the other states up that way.

that is cute Kyle, but I would feel safer if it was an actual car.

the bikes must be heavy, would hate to spill it, would have to get a tow truck to upright.

You gotta love a motorcycle with 1957 Chevy fins. Great find!

**Kerrowdown** · 03-02-2014, 03:43 AM

The paint jobs on the these machines are just amazing, the costs must be astronomical... great captures.

too much for me I think and they don't tow very well behind a motorhome.
