Right before the holidays, I helped Brian pick up this great running, blacked-out 1982 KZ440. Runs perfect, well-maintained, and perfect for a first time rider.  Here's a pic from when we first picked it up.  I practically froze my dick off that night after test riding and loading it into the truck.  The guy he bought it from needed money to fund his XS1100 stretched street fighter project.

  Come out and support Mook (Dusters SF/Wilkes-Barre) and his band War Hungry, the best hardcore/metal band to come out in years.  Seriously, these guys fucking shred.  See you there!

 Definitely three 2-Strokes bikes I'd love to have in my own personal collection.  Not only do they rip (well, the RZs definitely do, and the YSR rips as much as it can) but the graphic schemes match as well.  Info located here.  Found via the Throttle Yard.

The weekend of November 5th - 6th, we went up to Harleysville, PA to have our bikes used for a Radlands Clothing photoshoot.  Jim brought his KX80, Nick had his CB125s enduro/tracker/deathbike, and Jon rode his XR650L.  It was an amazing weekend filled with campfires, dirt trails, lifted 4x4 chases, and a 24-hour party that only stopped after the state police arrived to break things up.  Styling

One of my dream bikes, the Honda RC30 was the racing version of the VFR750. More info here.  In my opinion, the best looking "modern" sportbike.  From the dual headlights to the lines on the paint scheme, it's really hard to beat.  Despite being released in 1989, there isn't a single other CBR, R6, R1, Ninja, or Gixxer that can come close to the RC30. This particular bike was #004 of the 1990

This past Saturday before last, my cousin Laura got married in Lambertville, NJ.  It's a small town that borders the scenic Delaware River directly across the bridge from New Hope, PA.  If you have a free afternoon, take a trip to that area and ride along River Road in PA or Rt. 29 in NJ for some of the most popular roads for motorcyclists that Southeastern Pennsylvania has to offer.  With the

One of the main reasons we started The Dusters was an excuse to make matching T-shirts for all of our friends.  What started as a drawing on a birthday card by the extremely talented Kelli Castillo Mercado has finally come into fruition as our first official logo. Using Kelli's experience in screen printing and my ability to drink beer and follow directions, we were able to successfully

Went to a lot of shows this past season and realized that I need a rat rod and/or old truck.  I love the creativity with all of the ratted out stuff....so many little details.  You'd could look at a car for 15 minutes and keep on seeing new things the owner had done to his car.  Who knew Trenton had a hot rod shop?  Check out the radiator overflow....nice.  My Lady and her dream

One year ago this month Pete, Nick, Josh, and Jim of the Dusters along with their good buddy Alan Peterson participated in the Philadelphia leg of the 2010 Red Bull Flugtag competition. In case you're not familiar, Flugtag is when a bunch of idiots build a human powered flying machine and push it off a 30 foot pier to see (1), if it will fly, and (2) whether they will survive the drop. We were

It's been a while since we've made a post on this blog. I wanted to make more of an effort in updating this site since May, but life gets in the way sometimes. Pete's back at Duster's HQ from his South American journey. You'll be seeing posts from him time to time. Everybody's bike is more or less finally running now that there's less than 2 months left in the riding season. Regardless, at
