American Motorcycles

This pic is unfortunately not a close up, but the motorcycle is one of the coolest ever made. This is a single cylinder Iver Johnsen made by the "Iver Johnson's Arms & Cycle Works"








The company was started by a Norwegian, Iver Johnsen who emigrated from Norway
in 1863. He came from Sogn og Fjordane, a pretty poor region back in these days.
He started as a gunsmith and soon did it well with several gun related inventions. In 1891 Iver Johnson's Arms & Cycle Works was established and when the old man died in 1895, his three sons took over the bussines. They soon bicame big with bicycles and allso had a go for their own brand motorcycles. This did not last very long as they very to technical for their selling price. The Iver Johnson is today a very rare motorcycle.
 



Wish you all to be on the road with the trashest bike ever!!!

We headed out for georgia on thursday night to pick up a killer digger. It was a wild road we went on the dragons tail got a little sea sick then made it it over to Rascal and Jades house and man they were cool they gave us some great home cooked food and treated us like they new us for 20 years even though we had only met them 20 min ago. Then we went and met Evil Woman and did she look good. Then we talked tattoos and bikes for a wile and we had to head out. I gotta say we had a blast done there and we are already planning on going back thats. Buzz'z family down south and thanks Rascal and Jade. Oh ya then we got home on sunday morning slept a few hours and we went right to work on the evil woman.
