Met up with these two yesterday for a run out.

Back when I was 15 these were two of the local nutters on gt250's and rd's
Both mid 50's now but still out and about

The guy on the Kwak has two


Great day out sharing old tales.
I went with them to Oulton park in 82 for the transatlantic races.The one on the LC had a cbx with a Marshall 6 into 1 at the time.
We went to a nearby pub where he was pulling monster wheelies,it was a dark and everytime he put it down the pipe grounded out in a flurry of sparks. It was mega,some angel types who were watching kept buying him drinks to do it again

A couple of pics of them back in the day

lc rider

Kwak rider on his z1r which I thought was the coolest bike going
Missed this kev, what a difference from the early pictures.
Ditto...Great pics, the stylmartin trousers worn by the Z1 owner are fab! Good to see there still enjoying their bikes..

cjs racing.

Nothing wrong with a bit of duct tape and cable ties!

I was more on about the frame looks st! The braising doesn't look particularly well done from the quick look over it I had. Not the standard I'd expect from a so called Moto2 bike anyway
