Ducati’s Multistrada 1200 can take you anywhere, including the largerst salt flat of the world, the Uyuni Salar which is located in Bolivia at 3,656 meters above sea level.

These magnificent photos were taken by Felipe and his group of friends from Ducati Cile who made the trip with with this group of Multistradas which included two Pikes Peak Limited Editions.

Fans can mourn the passing of MV Agusta’s President Claudio Castiglioni in many ways, but we admit that Eugenio on his Brutale 910R has come up with a very fitting tribute in using one of Castiglioni’s famous phrases: There are a lot of beautiful motorcycles in the world, but MV Agusta is another thing.”

I have to say I quite like lobster but it almost gives me the creeps seeing this motorcycle model made from lobster. The crayfish gets sculpted into a motorcycle by Huang Mingbo, who is described as a food carving artist. The funny motorcycle pics come from a seminar on cooking art in China and show the scale model right down to the last details including the wheel. At the very least we’re impressed by his efforts.

Get your stuff together and get back to work! How much stuff can you fit on a Moto Guzzi Griso? Or a BMW K1300R? Quite a lot, by the look of it, but the motorcycle pic below deserves a special mention just for the beach umbrella. These pics come from our guys at Motoblog.it and show Italians on holiday in August. We went on holiday in a hatchback but come to think of it, most of the stuff that fit in our boot could be stored on these bikes with a bit of strategic placement.

What do you get when you cross a Roman chariot with a Vespa? This Vespa chariot livery. Up close this funny motorcycle pic looks more like a Roman-medieval mix but the only thing missing for us is a little extra equipment. Anyone for jousting?

These pics come from our guys on Motoblog.it and show a vintage BMW sidecar and a Laverda which we believe is a 1980’s 750SF model but we’re happy for someone to step in and correct us on that one. The pics come from Jego who snapped them in Italy and convince us that on seeing any sidecar, vintage or not, is like stepping back in time.

It’s almost hard to believe in looking at this Aprilia RS250 Racing model in the photo that we’re talking a bike that was built a good 12 years ago now. The two-stroke model certainly brings back memories of the heydays of 250cc racing. Originally built to celebrate Aprilia’s success in the GP250 category, the model already featured nearly everything Aprilia had to throw at it in terms of technology. Even now this 1998 Aprilia RS250 looks like it would hold more than just its own on a track day.

With the new EBR 1190rs again pushing the boundaries in motorcycle manufacturing, it seems appropriate to check out some of the previous Buell creations - even from Harley-Davidson days - to see how Erik Buell has always stayed true to his innovative principles. In fact, probably one of the difficulties with Buell bikes were that they weren’t so approachable at first glance and had to be ridden to be understood.

But there’s something to be said for purist bikes and in these pics we get quite an elegant restoration of a Buell S3 Thunderbolt, whose owner, Alberto says: “It’s a very characteristic motorcycle, with a unique style and personality. Mine is perhaps the only example left in Italy in this condition and I managed to “restore” it with a lot of passion and help from friends who love two-cylinder Buells.”

These beautiful shots show a trusty BMW F800GS touring a natural reserve not far from Italy’s lovely Urbino town in the Marche. The photos come from Italian Pierpaolo who describes his motorcycle tour as “incredible emotions with an all-purpose bike”. This is what summer is for!

As Europe comes into its busy holiday season, we had to share these pics of the “20,000 pieghe” competition. It’s a European motorcycle ride across five days that starts from Pavia in Italy and goes to Sestriere. This year saw 150 motorcycles take part, all of whom hooked up at the end with the Cesana-Sestriere rally revival and its historic cars. If you’re interested in this motorcycle ‘tour’ across northern Italy, check out the pics below to see some of the scenes you can take in.

It’s only when you delve into history like this that you realise what a shame it is that a company like Moto Morini is closing. This photo of the Morini Deltabox (which looks like it’s scanned from a magazine, but we can’t be sure) from Motoblog.it, shows the V-Twin engine which was designed by Italy’s famous motorcycle engineer, Franco Lambertini.

While other Italian motorcycle companies are also credited with the innovation and use of the V-Twin engine, it is generally considered that Lambertini is the father of the design. During his career, he worked at Moto Morini, and when the company was under Cagiva ownership it is said the new owners actually put aside his original drawing for a v-twin.

Lambertini then moved on to Piaggio Group for a while, before going back to Morini and working on projects for Benelli and other development of new Morini models. Curiously, Lambertini has a background in automobiles and first worked for Ferrari which makes quite a list of Italian industrial design in general. See more on Lambertini in an interview with the Morini Club.

We had to share this lovely pic of a Triumph Street Triple R parked at the top of the Furka Pass in Switzerland after a motorcycle tour through the area. The pass has an elevation of 2,436 metres and is part of a three-pass trip that travellers often take. Apparently a steam train runs the pass and it was also used as a location in the James Bond film Goldfinger, but otherwise seeing this photo, we think it’s a great place for a spot of summer motorcycling.
