Nothing wrong with that. There's another 10 years in that. It'll see you two buggers out. :lol: :lol: :lol:
Bit of advice. Buy a good bed and a good pair of shoes, because if you aren't in one you'll be in the other.

apparently during the 60's when old motorbikes weren't worth anything my mates house had a well filled up with a load of old bikes and concreted over, his bathroom is now sat on top of it. i'd love to get a mini digger in there and see what's under his floor. :D

oddly he's not overly keen on the idea.

Nothing there that rust stop, bead blasting, complete frame and engine swap out won't cure :D
