    World Famous?

    So I was watching some Africa Twin porn from Greece when this good lookin rooster on an RD04 popped up at 2:08...

    Anyone else been "published" or Wellywooded?
    There are two kinds of adventurers: those who go truly hoping to find adventure and those who go secretly hoping they won't. We should come home from our adventures having faced their perils and uncertainties, endured their discomfort and beaten the odds, with a sly acknowledgment and revitalised solidarity of character.

    Some scout from Twin eagle spotted my talent back in 90
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    nothing like that!!,

    a few Times I have built a chop , for next to nothing , or a rediculously low budget , challenge as it were

    I got it from 2 chaps in England who , living up north had time but no money , so used to buy bikes weeks before an event ( like the bulldog) then set about making the said bikes work for little or no money

    I am doing one now, Enfield chop , I have one more bike to finish , CR 250 modified frame ....before I can get onto it , but I am collecting parts ,,,,,,,,

    it will feature a SU carb !!!! , , though Im not sure of the front end ,,,,yet ! build , upside down , springer ,,, conventional ....... Maybe , a mix......


    In fact , The sooner I get the CR off the bench the better !

    won a tee shirt for letter of the month in BRM once....also got a mention in their editorial when I pointed out the obvious problem of putting an GS1200 and an 09 tiger (the road one) infront of a KTM990 as the best adventure bike for NZ. based on their test route a Goldwing wouild have beaten all three. suffice to say they did see reason and repented!
    ....wherezz that track go
