The perfect bike for getting around New Orleans (and its epic potholes). Also happens to be perfect for crossing the Himalayas.

The Simplex Servi-Cycle was manufactured right here in New Orleans from 1935 until 1960. Strikingly simple design and 100 mpg performance. We love it as much as Mardi Gras.
Janus Motorcycles Halcyon 250
Lightweight, small displacement, incredible vintage styling and handmade in the USA. At the top of our wish list at Poet Motors.

Daytona Orange and a top speed of 125 mph. The best German motorcycle of all time?

The O.G. knucklehead. Enough said.

Vintage sidecar racing in astounding to watch and vintage sidecar motorcycles like this one are astounding to look at.

The new Indian Scout is a great bike but the original is legendary. The 1929 - 1931 Scout 101 may be the best of them all.
1974 Moto Guzzi Eldorado Custom
We have a soft spot for Moto Guzzi at Poet Motors, especially the old Ambassadors and Eldorados. This Eldorado is a great example of why.
