    I don't, really. It's more "I've been to the pub" related, old boy.

    Great bike, they were, and, except for dual-carriageways, I never had
    any probs keeping up with my mates, who had an assortment of mainly
    mid-to-large jap stuff, ranging from GS550 to Z1B. Great bike for the
    twisties around the Derby area, it was.


    [1] No, I wasn't that mate, but I did have one from '78 on.

    Do they have roads down there?

    BTW could you do something to stop your newsreader adding loads of
    blank lines top and bottom? Ta.

    It's a lovely bike, prawn. Thanks for letting me HAGM.

    The noise is something special and there's nothing wrong with it at
    all. It was a pleasure to ride and U-Turns in no space at all. Plus
    it's about my size, too.
