Hello, my name is Lucas. Im from Argentina..
I´m 33 yeards old. i ride since the 12´s. I started with a vespa Super sport that my grandfather gave me.
He literaly sawed my bicycle with his grinder. He was a "very good" Racing Pilot.
He drove a Norton international and a Manx wich we still treasure with my brother.
Then i grew up, started to work and also started to buy more troubles.
First Another vespa ( px 200) and then another and another..always runing from mechanic to mechanic.. And so i became a full am/pm grease monkey.
At 26 i started to restore vintage british motorcycles. Thats how i found my es2 norton 500 on a near town from home. A wm20 bsa..
And so watching hours of pics on the web, from the ace cafe, from father bill and his boys, from the good old days..
i realized that it was my "grinder moment"
So i found my self looking for a motorcycle to baptize it with the ton up spirit !
I finally decided to buy a Honda GB 250 Clubman.
Bad luck for my, there is only a few of this model here in this forgoten country.
The engine is not working at the moment.
I started by the end.. doing the paint job...
I accept sugestions like " Dont do that" or anything.
By the way, ia have a friend that is traveling to New zealand with Los pUmas Rugby Team. (I also play Rugby).
And i was thinking to ask him that get my some spares for my GB 250 Honda.
Could somebody tell me where i could send him to get some spares...? I need the right plastic Side cover and some transmission gear.
Thank you all.
