Harleys & Cactii















Just wanted to share these fantastic photos of a friend's trip.

In James' words .."We started out at Tucson, Arizona, where we rented the bikes from Bigsky rentals, no helmet laws in Arizona by the way. Headed north using b-roads, past Phoenix, and up to Cottonwood, where we stayed the first night. The roads change to wide sweeping mountain type roads, through Sedona to Flagstaff, great road. Now up to the Canyon, real big scenery, the road dropping down from the Canyon towards Cameron was my favourite part of the trip, the best road.

We'd like to introduce Southern Motorcycles who we're talking with about their dirtbikes.
I totally love the design but thats just a girl thing. They come highly recommended by Kate Harrington of TT sidecar & enduro fame & experience.


The bikes are 230cc, 5-speed, air-cooled 4-strokes with electric & kick start (CDI ignition) on a lightwieght chassis with removable aluminium sub-frame and tunable front & rear suspension.
10" shock travel
10.5" fork travel
36" seat height
13" ground clearance
5L fuel capacity
3.00-21 front & 4.60-18 rear tyres

Looking forward to seeing all 210 lbs of the real thing on its arrival in May.
