Maybe I shouldn't ask this here as it's not car related, but I guess there will be lots of people on here who also like bikes. My question is whether there is a bike equivalent of RR? I like RR philosophy and the variety of cars, I'm starting to be interested in my bikes again and would like to find the same but for bikes.
I should have posted a pic but I'm at work and wanted to ask, I'll add something later.

in short, no (not that I know of)
There was one created, look in readers other mods for a link, but it petered out.
There have been a lot of calls for a dedicated section on here and to an extent bike builds are tolerated more on the other mods page than before, but I understand there are no plans for anything specific.
I tend to stick to model specific forums for my bikes, and then here for a global overview. The various bike scenes can be quite cliquey in my experience...

Hello Tony, thanks for posting.
The bike scene always seems to have had many specific sub scenes, well, way back when I was more into them. I hoped there would be something now that would cover anything old and / or modified, a bit like RR is for cars.
If not I don't think I'll bother to sign up to anything, something too specific wouldnt be interesting for long.

Unfortunately not I've had a look from time to time but nothing worthwhile
Readers other modifications Is probably the best (only) place to post in I would read it

Ditto, I haven't found anything. As you've probably seen already, motorbike forums seem to be about a specific make or model Eg Royal Enfield, Harley or specific scene Eg traditional scooter scene, adventure riding. There doesn't seem to be a forum where every shape and size of powered two wheeler shows up modified and unmodified.
The only things I can think of where everything is welcome in real life were the protests against motorbikes having to pay for parking in Westminster and the Distinguished Gentleman's ride.

Another, New Zealand based, car forum frequented by a number of members on here has a fairly active bike section.

I started doing something with a retro bike, I think I'll just post something in the other rides section on here where I'm sure some people appreciate bikes too. Thanks for the replies.

Have a look in the "Readers other modifications" - there are a few cool / retro / kids weird bikes in there.
