Ill be back on in a few years, I cant keep a bike outside, I would be devastated if some twat knocked it over and it isnt good for them what with all the exposed engine parts and electrics, especially during snow / rainstorms we get, more hassle than its worth.
Plus Im too chickenshit that I will get caught by the rozzers doing silly speeds and too chickenshit to hurtle it round corners

I'm not 100%, I think it may have gone as i'm sure he mentioned he might be retiring (for the second time). If he has any sense he will, he's recently had a shoulder op because it was dislocating easy and the doctor said he would have been shocked if he'd opened a 60 year olds shoulder up and it was that bad, although he was told the otherday that it looks like it has been really successful. He's back into his push bikes now as a way of cushioning the blow. He's fastest down the hills though, prodbably gets his knee down .

Someones just made some videos up of my dad and I when we went to Brands in Oct last year, only just put them online

I'd go back to Brands first as its so close.
I want to do another one before my France trip, but not sure if I should tempt fate as I want it to survive 2000 odd miles lol:

Hoping to get some carbon for it, round the side of the tank, key lock etc. Got the standard exhaust on in that pic too with standard footrest. Have to swap them over for trackdays
Youknow, they are only £6k brand new otr these days.
That fancy standard looking jap 600 seem so appealing? Get one

yes they are very cheap and a break from the normal ricer 600
was the TY the one with the 3spoke wheels Daimo?
those were the days, my uncle still has his Honda trike 250cc, it was the last air cooled one in scotland, he still has all the paperwork etc or it, still starts and drives no problems. thought i had a pic of it on photobucket/facebook/bebo/ but no
this is missus on her toy i bought her last year..... cant tell you how much i got it for incase you phone the police and say i stole it.... £50
nae gears, or kick start,so perfect for her! i just drive it on the grab rail at the back all the time (otherwise...wheelie )
Heres another couple of old school bikes, both belonging to my mates...... but what are they????????????????
and the guy thats got the first bike also owns:
F150 lightening edition
crf450 supermoto
cr250
and anything else you can see in that garage, he used to own a bike shop in aberdeen as a sort of hobby, but gave that up when he started working onshore again.....
oh, and he is a NUTTER ona bike, but a very skilled one, not one thats gonna cause accidents.
a few years back he attempted the worlds fastest blind folded bike run...... was somewhere in england, think it was that airstrip that always used for that kinda shit.
unfortunatly due to high winds i think he set 170mph ish......

Nahhh that one your thinking of is the twist and go PW50 that little kids have.
Mine was a 4 speed trials bike Same as this.
I think i've seen that blindfold run on TV im sure
Im not a very fast rider. I just need some more practice on track days to get some higher speed cornering. I know theres another 5-10mph corner speed, but I've jsut got to get some faith in the tyres. The bike can do it, the riders a bit of a pansy though
All you riggers earn loads, im in the wrong job here. I want available free income to spend on toys
