title: Motorcycle Survivor: Tips and Tales in the Unrestored Realm
author:  Kris Palmer 
description: Following on the instant popularity of Kris Palmer's charming first book with publisher Parker House, he brings us a wealth of personal experience and a multitude of stories from others. The trend of leaving a motorcycle unrestored is advancing apace - it's almost a cult. Witness the best of show in 'The 2008 Legend of the Motorcycle Concours', arguably now the world's premier show, was 'A 1908 Indian Torpedo Tank Board Track Racer' which had never been restored and was in thoroughly original condition. At the same show, the Elvis Award (for the motorcycle that most embodied the rock and roll theme) went to an unrestored 1923 Norton 16H which huffed and puffed its way on stage! The book focuses on advice on how to live with an unrestored bike plus multiple stories of living examples.

  The Dark Riders or DRs, as we call ourselves, is a club of like-minded individuals that enjoy riding
  motorcycles. Specifically, hogs. We each have our day job. I work the parts counter at a Harley-
  Davidson dealership, for example. We also have our…ahem…other jobs. The DRs is a very
  exclusive club. You are only allowed in if you are recruited. We only recruit when we need a very
  specific set of skills. You see, the Dark Riders, we
