    when i try to watch it it says video unavailable
  16. ok i might have chance of a german rd 250 D frame but it will come with a nova and not a v5 does anyone know if this could be a problem
  17. did you attend the cenotaph on douglas front
  18. yes you might be able to see some good golf there too
  19. yes it has certainly been crap for my job
  20. i never did like riding pillion i like to be hold of the bars
  21. no you are right Bob there doesn't and i have seen that one on fleabay and a thing that is happening now is that the price of the air cooled models are now on a par with the LC's and that is getting expensive especially the 400's i think there is one on fleabay for £10,000 which is way beyond my means anyway that isn't what i want i more or less want to start from scratch with just a frame
  22. great scenery and wooly animals
  23. right so after after a bit of waffling i think i might have come up with an idea for a winter project and beyond and that is a yam 2 stroke twin cafe racer, in 1978 i had a new rd 250e and i have missed it ever since so im on the look out for a frame to start and then probably a race style tank and single seat, i hope to source some used parts off fleabay after the frame i think the important thing will be the motor which will be either be 250 350 or a 400 and then i reckon it will be a saving up session for a while to get more parts
  24. that's what we like to see a good winter check over
  25. yea and i had the 350 and that was rapid
