My first motorbike was

A Honda CB250 super sports, a 1964 example which at the time of my purchase was four years old. Stuck the ‘L’ plates on and away I went onto the roads. Lovely bike to ride being very modern at the time with the leccy starter, OHC engine that loved rev’s.
Six months after purchase the cam chain snapped at high revs sending the broken chain through past the clutch and out from the bottom of the engine.
I am now thinking around the idea buying a replacement! Call it old age reliving my youth because that sums it up perfectly. It wouldn’t be ridden on the roads but perhaps gentle use on one or two track days each season. Polished to death and cherished!
Wise purchase investment at £6k or stupid old duffer.
