It was a new personal best as regards buying a doer upper..pdq...got home sat night on me fz1 from visiting my kids and grand kids and sat down with a cup of tea to read me practical " sports bikes".. In just under an hour I'd seen a bike, downed me tea sharpish, back on the fazer, flew over to the old fellers house ( he's 70, has retired from riding because the one time he got this out of the shed this year he fell over with it, lovely feller, hope I can ride to that age at the very least..) stopping only at wroxham to get 200 quid outta the speed bank for a deposit and bought the bike...Spotted this beauty outside my local Yam dealers two weeks ago
Nearly didn't, it's quite the shitter, but once it fired up it sounded just like Jim gooses mfp bike ( for the children here that's a very, very old film about an Aussie chap called max..) and it hadta be done...
