It was a close run thing mate but take it as a positive that I chose you over DIY, gardening or talking to the wife.
How about meeting up in Oria, I haven’t been there for ages. We can drink coffee and slag everyone off.
To be fair Pete the main issue was that to get around it (get an engineer’s report) it was going to cost a couple of thousand euros and I’d only paid £1,500 for the bike in the first place so it didn’t make economic sense.
I had a CB900F for a year or so and it was hideous. The bloody thing had been painted with silver Hammerite so at least it wasn’t going to rust!
This is me and my Dutch mate on the outskirts of Rotterdam. We were both wankered but he couldn’t stand up properly so we chained his bike to a tree and he jumped on the back of mine. Our two girlfriends got a taxi and that’s how they took this photo. I should add that I was young and stupid and I think drink/driving wasn’t taboo in those days. Wouldn’t dream of doing now.
Great memories………he married his girlfriend and they’re still together now. I didn’t.
