This 1981 Benelli Sei 900 (VIN BGB01062) is said to be entirely original down to its factory-fitted Pirelli tires, and condition is essentially indistinguishable from new thanks to an incredibly low odometer reading of 82 kilometers. The seller says it’s been stored properly over the past 36 years or so, and promises that it’s ready to be driven despite the old rubber. Though these 900 versions were released in response to Honda’s CBX, the original, 750cc Sei of 1972 was the world’s first production six-cylinder motorcycle, and both models remain some of the most exotic and interesting bikes of the era.

This 1978 Laverda 1000 Jota was reportedly owned for a time by Richard Slater of Slater Laverda–the Italian marque’s UK importer throughout the 1970’s. Based on the successful 3C, the Jota came to fruition after a meeting between Mr. Slater and company execs–the result was an exotic sportbike powered by a 981cc air-cooled triple that produced nearly 100 horsepower with a dry weight of around 525 pounds. Known as the fastest production motorcycle of its day, this Jota comes with a letter of authenticity from Slater Laverda, and the seller says it continues to be used almost every week and…

This adorable baby tortoise appears to be in a good mood as it emerges from its egg. It was a perfect moment when this tiny tortoise poked its head out of its eggshell and appeared to grin as it saw the outside world for the first time. Alessio Caria, a photographer in Italy, was ecstatic to have witnessed such a historic occasion two weeks ago after spending several months monitoring the eggs he’d discovered in his courtyard. He learned he had unwittingly acqυired a pair of slow-footed tortoises after spending so much time in the oυtdoors. Piccola Magia, which means…

“Do you prefer the build or the ride?” It was a question for Brandon Mungai that I assumed might come with a shaky answer. Motorcycles have, in many ways, defined themselves as a quintessential part of the American Dream—alongside classic pickup trucks, Coca-Cola, and denim jeans. Surrounding the ethos of riding a motorcycle are the ideas of freedom, masculinity, and the nomadic spirit. And to suggest that building a bike isn’t merely a means to an end would, for some, seem sacrilegious. However, that wasn’t the case for Brandon. Brandon Mungai began BMW motorcycle restoration some years ago, and despite…

If you live outside Italy, you may not have heard of FB Mondial. But the marque is familiar to Europeans of a certain age, because it dominated the Grand Prix scene in the 1950s—and collected multiple world championships in the 125 and 250 classes. It’s over ten years since we last featured a Mondial, so this exquisite restomod from Bill Becker of BeckerBuilt is a welcome arrival. Bill is a retired architect based in Philadelphia, and his builds are characterized by thoughtful, methodical craftsmanship. Bill’s latest project builds upon the stock features of the well-designed little Mondial, and adds just…

Take the A51 autostrada out of Milan, and half an hour later you’ll arrive in the small town of Brugarolo. It’s home to one of Italy’s more unusual bike manufacturers, the Black Douglas Motorcycle Company. Black Douglas makes vintage-style motorcycles with a distinctly English appearance, like the Sterling shown here. It doesn’t have electronically controlled suspension or switchable riding modes, but it’s not short of charm. It’s the brainchild of Fabio Cardoni, who started Black Douglas two years ago. “I’ve been riding motorcycles since I was 11,” he says, “but for the past five or six years, I simply didn’t…

We often talk about the power of a mother’s instincts. It’s pure and beautiful. A mother is ready to do everything, even put their life at risk to protect her babies. If she is asked which is the most important to her, the answer will certainly come to her children. A happy kid is a kid growing up in the love and care of his mother. Image Credits: Matthew Raifman But do you know that fatherhood plays an essential role in a kid’s perspective of life? Kids are always proud of their father. There is nothing that their father cannot…

Wild animals can live happily inside your house. They adapt to the new habitat quickly and have special affections for their humans. They can even build a bond, a very strong one with other animals in the family. Friendship comes in all shapes and sizes. There is no strange to see animals of different species get along well with each other and become best friends. Image source: Dora Wei This is the case of Yezhu the baby wild boar in this story. She was left in a box in front of Dora Wei’s house in the early morning. The piglet…

In the early 1930s the US was in the grips of the Great Depression and like all motorcycle manufacturers Harley-Davidson struggled to continue production and sell large capacity machines. By 1933 the company was running at 20 per cent capacity, but optimism prevailed and a new overhead valve motor was developed to replace the side-valve. This was the 61 cubic inch (1000 cc) Knucklehead, Harley’s first production overhead valve engine. Originally intended for 1935 release, delays in development eventually saw it appear in 1936 in the E and EL 61. The Knucklehead proved a landmark model for Harley-Davidson Harley…

We have different reactions toward the same thing. It is understandable as each person has their own point of view. This also happens in the world of animals, guys.

Arthur was born fine, after about 2h30 of labor Anna Carolina was 39 weeks and 1 day pregnant when she started feeling the first contractions. Waiting for Arthur, her first child, she called the doula and the obstetric nurse, who would accompany her at home until it was time to go to the hospital where the baby was supposed to be born. But Arthur didn’t want to wait. He was born in the parking lot of the building where the family lives, in Rio de Janeiro, supported by a team and under the frightened (but very happy) gaze of his…
