whats the wet traction like :lol:

Now mate, I don't like to be rude but that is one of the ugliest rides i have ever laid eyes on and doesn't look like it would have the power to pull the skin of a custard. You really need to improve your taste in rides.

All i can say is i hope you got it cheap if not actually getting a payment from the previous owner to take it away.

:wink:

I doubt it Greg, If i had to guess i would say the inlet and exhaust ports are way to big and have a tendency of sticking wide open. I would also say that the spark is way to weak to ignite the mixture thus the fuel pretty much just runs staight in the inlets then straight out the exhaust with any meaningfull thing happening in between.

Duane, what year is it, Off the top of my head i'd have to say it would be an early 1939 model judging my the styling

It's definately vintage, couldnt find the engine number to confirm what year exactly. Came with a 375ml tank of fuel too, as pictured. with one of those trendy covers for the tank to protect it from rock chips and bugs.

Headlights are definately on though. (they wont turn off)

Just wondering Duane, With all the bad points does it ride ok? I'm tipping NO but then again you do have some strainge tastes.

by **Smitty** » Mon May 15, 2006 5:03 pm

looks like the fuel costs will be high too......... :wink:

cheers (and yeah plenty of that too)
