I'm not in your league but I do have two bikes with points and for reasons I don't understand myself I can't bring myself to swap them out for electronic ignition. I should really get a life and move on

I upgraded one of mine to points from electronic ignition. Cured 75% of the breakdowns...

Lovely. The only way I'd have one of those Indians, with their foot clutch!

We had been to Keswick visiting our son who was camping with the Scout and heard on the news while in the car and drove by the scene of the accident.

We couldn't see anything but we could see the Police and all the other rescue vehicles.

A really sad day.

I'm not sure, I do know the driver was complaining that I won't lift as much as the previous 2003 outgoing Scania.

It will lift a steel container at full reach though.

I saw a LandA wagon down here near Oxford a couple of months ago and thought of your R1.

Yep, we have a few jobs going on there.

QA throttle fitted and new start switch to the GSXR. The difference is amazing

Not a picture but if there's a youtube thread I wasn't able to find it.

Fairly cool video showing suspension action on a track.

Quite possibly leaning on the actual bike he lost his life on - the Killer K.

Racing Teapot in the background as well.
