The aircooledRDclub are doing the A39 from Minehead to Lynton and Lynmouth on the Friday of the Royal wedding.
This was a run I was organising for the club but my wife has booked our holiday for the same day.

I may take you up on that offer mate.

I am not sure that its worth £9000 and thats why I reckon it will still be here next summer. I live in the middle of Southampton and the traffic is a nightmare. Thats why the bike goes in the van and i ride it at rallys etc. Im not realy bothered either way but deep down I think it will stay with...

Well I wondered when you would notice. Why. I have 7 Yamaha strokers. The RZV is lovely but to be honest im frightened to use it. I take it on bike meets and everyone crowds round it and touches it, thats going to get me in a fight one day. Second thing is its horrible to ride under 6000 rpm and the...

When you sit on the bike it lowers to the correct position.
Especialy with my weight.

Paul. Is that your bike? If so, I take it Tony painted it. Do you mind me asking what he charged and exactly what did he do? Thanks Pete I can not remember the price but it was competative. I had the panels repaired and he blasted the tank and did the job. I went with pearl white instead of a solid...

I am very fussy and im happy with his work. he is a bit slow but its worth waiting for. His workshop is the cleanest most equiped workshop I have ever seen. All new equipment and a massive top of the range oven plus he mixes his own paints to match prefectly with yamaha colours. He has done 3 bikes ...

There will be a few RD500s here.

Now finished. Just got to bleed the front brakes a bit more. Went out for a test ride earlier.

should have it finished next week I hope.

Yes I have the tool tray.
It was not with the bike when I got it but I found one on ebay america.
I also got the tool kit in the white canvas bag.

I got a age certificate from the VJMC then I got the bike MOTed. Filled out a form and took it to DVLA with a cheque for £25 and £44 for the tax. The MOT station dont put a reg number on the certificate. DVLA then arrange for you to take the bike to a ministry of transport testing station for ...
