    RVF Castrol for sale

    I've spent the last five years putting this together with original or fabricated parts.

    I'll never get the money back spent on her but it was a project/dream to own one of these since I was a kid.

    Bike is on Tardme

    Aye. If I could've kept all of the bikes I've had over the years I'd need a fucking big barn.

    Easily one of the best NC35s i have seen/heard.
    Makes me sad about parking up mine for the last year or so.

    Very nice indeed! Unfortunately, though I'd like to, I can't buy it at the moment. But could you put up some more pictures to drool over please?

    Good luck with selling.
    Do us all a favour, by bringing yourself up to speed, before pulling onto the motorway.

    That bike is a credit to you.

    Shame it has to go, but that's life unless you have wads of cash and a big barn as Crasher said......
    Boy, when I think of some of the bikes and cars that have slipped through my hands over the years.....

    Before you judge a man, walk a mile in his shoes. After that, who cares? ...He's a mile away and you've got his shoes
