Re: Vintage bike!
Great license number! Is that for real?
after over 10 years parted with the 1995 Volvo 480 ES 2.0
Re: Vintage bike!
Thats not the final license plate, I'll get it later It is a temporary plate for import bike.
@Joolz: The age limit for vintage bikes here is 30 years But I'll bet thats a comfy ride!

Re: Vintage bike!
Being an ex biker that is lovely, I am hoping to get another BSA Bantam next year
If I want to hear the pitter patter of tiny feet I will put shoes on my cat

Not too fond of the 2-strokes. Though the GT's looks nice.

Re: Vintage bike!
Nah, i prefer 2 strokes, less to fix when they inevitably do break down! Currently have a suzuki gn250 4 stroke and the engine is a right pig to do any work on, it constantly needs the valve clearances doing. The previous bike was a kawasaki ZZR250 (ex250h1) And that was even worse than the gn, it was a screamer of a 4 stroke twin (16k red line) but killed drive chains in 100 miles. Had to carry 2 spare chains with me just incase it should die on me, wasnt impressed when it threw the chain into the back wheel @ 85mph on the motorway. it was quickly sold 2 months later when i had fixed it.
Still got a new project to play with soon, a 1974 Yamaha RD200A, another 200cc 2 stroke. but atm am having to spend every spare second of my time keeping the volvo running.
