Toastie will make a great commuter, low 1st gear to trickle along, light clutch and very miserly on the petrol, plus the bags. I'm sure the new owner will revel at all the gear she can carry, like a little mule she is...

About time for a BFTP ChCh ride, Toasters 1st Mainland ride with the ChCh members, there are a few down there DD and I would be keen as , perhaps feb/march could be a date, the North shall invade the South
Sounds like a good plan hatching there Wickle
Bugger,I'll have to find a CB200 to ride with now...although I think they have a higher top speed than an R50/5.
Toastie is the second bike to stay in the family, as I bought Seedy Gonzales's old bike too. It is so nice to buy a bike pre-sticketed
I bought the R65 from my wife...does that count? She charged like an angry cow too.
we saw a bike that may have interested you motu....a 441 victor special at the hb classic club...cool! pity didnt have a camera with me
Toaster is off to Christchurch Tomorrow. Pulled it out and it started after a few kicks. I let it idle for a while, its gotta be one of the finest idleing bikes ever. I could stand there all day and listen to it...so quiet...so smooth....so warranted....so registered.... right..back to the Italian scallions...I mean stallions..er gib boarding, plastering and painting...I've been informed.
end of an era!
end of an era! sure is........but as some Churchill once said " this is not the beginning of the end, nor is it the end of the beginning, it is the beginning of the beginning of the end of the beginning" after a few drinks...
