    Loz H waffled on in a quite bewildering manner to produce...
    Loz, if you buy an MZ, I'll go as far as giving you a lift to any corner of
    the country! (even the south)
    There's your excuse blown, now buy Swellers one.

    Big Tim wibbled incoherently
    My all-time favourite bike was a 1979 T regd RD400E with a full Terry
    Beckett proddy tune that I owned for about 2 years. It was clocked by
    it's previous owner at 128mph down the straight at Snetterton and
    handled beautifully on it's uprated forks and Koni shocks. It would
    easily power wheelie in 3rd gear, and if you tried hard enough you could
    hold a decent wheelie in 4th if you changed up at the right time.

    It was written off on the A1, when someone sideswiped me and I
    dislocated my hip. I never saw it again :-( . I wanted the engine out of
    it to fit into a blown up RD250E's chassis that I had kicking about my
    garage.

    Spooky, mine's T regd, but as I've had it since new it's deffo mine.

    I had the "fast road" tune done, so it would be reliable (on the
    advice of Mr Beckett) and reliable it was.

    Wheelies, I wouldn't know. Even then I was the wrong build and my
    "natural" traffic light technique was more drag strip than stunt
    monkey. Although I lent it to a mate one time and he pronounced it as
    lethal. "Why Mick?" Seems that he had a moment at some lights when it
    started running on one (ht coil shorting) then half way through the
    lights No 2 returned with a vengence.

    Ahh, happy days...

    It won't be eligible for Frankfurt, you know. You're not a ****, but
    we've got to have limits. Poor old Sean is taking a CG125 [0] ffs, and
    I'm on the wanky old Seedy.

    So look elsewhere for your mount.

  7. So who's got something cheap for me.
    I could pull the weight sympathy card here.

    I'd hope not. It's all very well allowing the odd ancient 250 ridden
    by a bloater, but you've got to draw the line somewhere...
