    I used to service a green one that lives locally but it's got a side-chair unit on it, old bloke had it so it may poke it's nose onto the market at some stage.
    Can't figure why this one has had the starter switch by-passed though....they're simple to refurbish. And it's probably dropped 20kg in weight with those aftermarket mufflers
    the mighty RVs huh, they must be due to make an appearance today

    That is one very cool project bike. I wish I had half the brains and workshop time that that guy has. Very very cool.

    Is it just me or does his smile remind you of John Britten...?
    High miles, engine knock, rusty chrome, worn pegs...
    Brakes as new

    Cell pics were crap until a few years ago. Most pics on TM will be on cell and as good as cameras of 10yrs back. Which is a surprise to younger me. Dragging the bike outside is always a good start. And not standing too close. Why don't people show some common sense?
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    Slightly crazed ? Millyard can do it all himself which is the big difference.
