I'm referring to the bike of course. What did you think?

Here's a few of my old crates. I had a lot more bikes but didn't take any photos of them unfortunately. Well it was before the brownie box camera came out

As Morcombe and Wise would say these are my bikes but not in the right order.

Honda 50

Suzuki GT250
Who's that laughing at the back? Fang I presume.

Suzuki GT380. Aye lad them wha days

Suzuki GP100 (I think)

Yamaha DT175 Enduro.

Suzuki SP370. I was a fool to let this go. Like rocking horse shit now.

Honda VF750. The old rattler

Yamaha XJ900. Didn't have this long. It wouldn't go round corners very well

We all bought new Z900's. in 1976.

First spray job. Pack it in fang!

Second spray job.

Me at 100mph on the Z900

Yamaha FZ750. Fantastic bike. Loved it.

And finally my baby.

It's actually Bovril and Marmite mixed. A mans drink.

I find Horlicks is a bit strong for me these days, it knocks me out flat. A nice hot cup of Ovaltine is more sociable.

As if Id laugh at either the hair or the paintjob, pot / kettle springs to mind.

The flares, and what look like, purple shoes are fair game though.

The sad thing is Nuggitt, when you were going through your "Mad Max" phase in 1976 I was 5 years old!!!

looks like you'd better dig out those old slippers again

YZF........have you been hanging about with Metalface??????

I dont see it as stooping low, I mean, we're all showing of our bikes so why not a little appreciation for the other important things in our lives

Except our bikes won't clout us for posting pics without their consent.
