Buying your motorcycle tire over the internet is becoming mainstream. We've already reported about one company (article  ), but here's another one that looks like it's trying to go for world domination.
The company, called Pneus-Online (Pneus is French for Tires), is from Geneva, Switzerland (but apparently they are French), and they are expanding fast. In Europe, they deliver their motorcycle (and car) tires to your doorstep in almost every country, and they have partnered with over 15,500 garages in Europe where you can bring your tires to get fitted. Many of the garages will even take delivery of your tires. Some will even come to your home to fit your tires.
They now also cover Canada (link ), the USA (link ) is being brought on-line and should shortly be announced (as is Brazil - link ). Other counties will come on-line later on, notably Australia and South Africa.
Their prices are kept very low, at times you'll even find them 50% lower than what you buy at a garage.
On each country's web site, they also have "for sale" ads for cars and motorcycles.

You're desperate, dumb, and/or just plain stupid to try this... but then if you look at the rest of the motorcycle you got to wonder about the mental health of its owner.
But then a motorcycle is a motorcycle...

Royal Enfield are a well established and long time manufacturer of motorcycles. In fact, they have the oldest model still in production. They used to be English, but are now based in India, and they produce some of world's best classic motorcycles.
They're not known for making fast motorcycles, you known... sportsbikes. They make classic, or shall I say vintage motorcycles that you can ride in the countryside, taking your time, enjoying the ride and views.
It's therefore a surprise to see a sportscar using a Royal Enfield engine. But it's true. This is the Berkeley B-95 LHD (Left Hand Drive). The car was built in 1959, and they only made 12 LHD units, 3 survived.
The engine is a modified Royal Enfield 750cc engine. The interesting thing is that the car weighs only 850 lbs (aluminium frame, fibreglass body), so should get some interesting performance (none are being disclosed).
The car is being sold for US$38,000 and is available in California.
