race" photo)

 

Even if I could afford the two strong men to follow me about to put me
onto and off of a monsterous GS, I don't think I'd bother. ;-)

Well, I'd rather like a VFR800, non-VTEC but shaft drive.

Let me think about this.

Street-fightered Cagiva Mito, fitted with RZ250/350 motor, and maybe a
Z50 with a Suzi(?) 100cc twin cylinder, two-stroke motor fitted.

I've thought about the diesel cruiser....
Clem, you are seriously weird!

I'd love to get hold of the prototype road bike TZ750 that's in the Yamaha
Museum!

 

surely you've seen this:

it might be a better place to start than a Mito if you're after the
streetfighter look?

Word!

I inspected 3 more bikes today but declined them all some more to bid on
next week, I am always thinking what now (takes my mind off work).

I bid on a MV Augusta 750 the other day but the owner was insulted with my
offer of $15,000 on a asking price of $17,995 he started crapping on about
it being "Classic" what a load of crap, I had a loan of one for 3 days, nice
bike but Classic no way.

I would like a

No show ponies to sit on plinths and admire, all would be ridden. Show
pieces to look at are a waste of time IMO. A bit like Clem, I cant think of
any current/exotic bike that would tempt me in the slightest, though I can
remeber a red/black R1 just glowing under s treetlight at Katoomba; that got
to me just looking at it.

I'll have two please.

I was down at the Freemantle auto museum the other day and they have one in
there that has been 'restored' It's a bit lairy looking with it's tassels
and ape hanger bars but still a nice unit. They also have a number of other
interesting bikes that, for some unknown reason, they don't feature them on
their website ...... go figure.

 

Can we join the old libs?

 

I take the Kombi Camper to young Lib meetings, never know when you might
meet a raver and its best to be prepared.

They were at best a very average ride (square 4) and didn't stop worth
shite , took huge effort to start and if you had the mag model you
either got a muscular leg and superhuman ability to start it or the knee
crapped out , I would much prefer the 500 velocete , shite loads better
bike or 2nd choice maybe a 650 Enfield or a BSA lightening although I
really used to enjoy the Enfield 500 once it was started , that thump
thump thump on avgas was wonderfulHMR twin was ok but the frames flex a lot when pushed.

 

your gonna get burned ( I am dobbing next meeting)

 

Someone has to chair .

 

Technical adviser.

Boxer

 

You must be a laboring person.

 

No Ducati mate?

Les

Beer?

 

I only mention it because my only chance of ever riding one went out
the window when my uncle sold his for $100 sometime in the 1970s.

Just because you've had it under a tarp in the backyard for 5 years is
no reason to get rid of a bike, honestly! :-/


BTH

 

I'd rather marry Nev.

 

Holding your hand is a minor problem

it's the other "bits" on offer we find disturbing.

 

John we were joking!

Take it from me the last place any sane person would want to be is a young
Liberal meeting (or Young Labor, National etc).
