16 inch front wheel?

Scolyer was Wally's brother in law.
Taswegians, like me.

Richard Scoular was (is?) a kiwi, now living in Bris. Owns the Scooter
shop on the corner of Queen & Ann Sts.

He still is! But it hurts more now!

I was supposed to ride with a young Magee in that race but he pranged
his trail bike & broke an ankle(?) the weekend before. According to
Scaysbrook, Roger H rode with Robert Holden on a GSX1000 (a Katana, I
guess).
As I remember it, Scolyer just happened to be there with his leathers in
his bag. - He was much quicker than me but luckily I managed to stay
aboard, for once.

Damn; wrong again!
Thanks Bummers.

Maybe on Bob Brown's thingo in the SuperBike races?

Couldn't have been much earlier than mine, which was an '83 with a number ending in 000339...

Those stupid splined bars, I would have broken mine if I could have replaced them!

And cheated! So how old are you going to be before you get an airhead?

Eh? What's going on?

 

Hmm; I would've said yours was an '84-on XJ900F as opposed to the '83
XJ900R

but that manual you gave me was an XJ900R manual so maybe yours was an '83
with an '84 fairing (or a late '83 plated '84 model or something..... )

[looks over his shoulder at his wife and contemplates a witty reply]

 

I don't think Magoo ever raced the gorgeous boiled-lolly DB1 (although
Aaron Slight did at least once).
I think Bernie's talking about the earlier TTF2 replica that repeatedly ran
foul of the rulebook (concerning whether it was a "production" frame or
not).

 

Well, Pete, remember when we went to that pissup at the Island,
and there were lots of bikes going around a bit of road with
some nice corners but we couldn't find a hole in the fence to
get through to there so we just had to sit and watch them?

Apparently Bummers got stuck on the _inside_ of that fence for a bit!

[awestruck in the face of pure understanding]
We beseech you Oracle-Sharks; please tell us why wimmens behave the way
they do.....

 

Not being a Ducophile I didn't comment, but I was fairly sure it wasn't
a Bimota.
Bummers

 

Huh, I did?

 

Sharkey gets his twisty bits mixed up but we get the drift mate. You're a
legend!

 

So that'd make you a fable Johno!

 

Chris Oldfield used to race BOb Browns I seem to remember
