The
Zimmerframe Manifesto
Welcome to Zimmerframe Racing. Brits'll get the joke. That up
there? That's Max the Big Black Dog. Because every garage needs someone who will
unconditionally tolerate your stupidity. See that smile? He knows you have no
clue, but he's cool
with it.
There is no Mission Statement here at Zimmerframe. It's just
a li'l web site about motorcycles and tangentially related stuff that I find
interesting and other people might, too. Rather than a Grand Vision, the site is guided by the following
simple principles:
You're never too old to learn.
Anyone can learn if they're willing to
screw up often enough.
You're never too old to screw up.
Except for cases of epic mechanical
catastrophe, you're probably better off buying tools and shop manuals with
the money you'd spend on labor.
There is both zen and art in the act of
maintaining a motorcycle.

Life is too short for crap beer.
And some silly video kickin' back and
havin' fun at Road Atlanta
