Nooo. That bike cost me a bloody fortune. It was never off the road for more than a week at a time with any modification I did. Astralite wheels with one off machined from solid cast iron rear drum, Metmachex swing arm, Power-Valve engine with Beckett proddy tune and 32mm Mikuni Powerjets, Swarbrick pipes, Dream Machine paint (when it was worth having), rearsets etc etc. It ended up with Lockheed front race brakes and Power-Valve F1 forks as well.

I reckon, with engine rebuilds and the one-off bits it had made and adapted, that bike set me back about 6 grand over the 3 years I was building it and using it. I could have put that money towards a decent bike.

My god woman, I presume you would have to send me a cheque and everything, can’t be bothered with that or going down the PO to post them!!

Tell you what, I'm set to be going to that minimoto place at hullivingdon (sp) this weekend (Sunday) if you are about/not too far from there, then I can chuck them in and you can pick them up from there

Like I said, you can have 'em ... be nice to think they get used
