thanks Big Fella, rubber side down mate heh heh ehh

 

That’s very nice indeed a proper cafe racer

Looks far better than any modern classic copy

 

Cheers Sir Triglet. comment appreciated Gold Star pass go collect £200 from Big Lad. Errr thats not a real Goldie of course..hard typing in a sleeveleess jacket..

 

Really nice bike, reminds me of a Norton my uncle had in 60s
Are the other bikes on gumtree too?

 

Yo, Thanks ab. Wife's Harley is on Gumtree under Harley Special 96 Motor runnin' 67 Plate on Suzuki Wheels etc etc Lovely Bike hardly ridden over the years. 93 Sporty is summat I've just finished and has been described as stunning by pals and neighbours. 90th Edition 25 year old found rusting uncovered. Only 5000 miles from new!

 

Why thanks RR most generous, don’t know what old big lad will say

No its not a real Goldie but it has got goldie silencers

 

There's no finer sound for me than Mr Turner's Twin and Goldies, with the exception possibly of the real Rocket Goldstar I had in my Yoof, still miss that bike. Racing to Squires Milk Bar as it was then at Sherburn-In- Elmet, the North's equivalent of the Ace. Happy days, wonder where they all are now?

 

That looks the part it's lovely. If I bought it I'd have to root out my open face skid lid and goggles from the loft

 

Nay ET, My Ace Stickered Pudding Lid complete with "eyes", 60's goggles and silk scarf when I test rode it, no, I'm serious, as in photo on left
Heh heh grow up, no chance I have a pic of me on it somewhere

 

Oh yes! eyes on yer hat, silk scarves, and chasing scooter boys. They were the days.

 

Yes “eyes” on the lid,,,,,,,John Coopers Moon Eyes 1960/70’s legend.

 

Thebiglad will be saying nothing, he's not a member on here and knows nothing about this subject.

 

Heh heh heh when I come back in I'm gunna post me on Bike in 'elmet, so there..great pic that Tiggy

 

As promised, return from test ride complete with 'elmet and "THE GRIN" Also see 50th Anniversary London Brighton Run Ace Badge, (which I was on but not on this bike) I machined into chaincase and cockpit view with the "Widowmaker" Sign I made. Also see St Christopher and skull ring heh heh, coming nurse..again. Click on pics for proper view.

 

Great photo RR

It’s a great feeling coming back from a test ride after rebuilding one of the loves of your life

 

ReCycled Rocker
What a smart machine. Thanks for sharing the photos.

Joe.

 

Thanks Sir Tig, and I can assure you the "Eyes" are on the back of the Helmet, to be seen as I pass the opposition.
