"Trouble was that no-one had ever bought a two-stroke triple because they wanted to go on slow-motion camping holidays with their pals on BMWs, delighting in an overall fuel consumption figure of 46.74553mpg."

I thought this was going to be something about the Mach 3 dvd. Don't see the appeal with those old bikes. :roll: No offence to all you old bike lovers out there :lol:

I had an identical one to that blue one so I suppose it's nostalgia,perhaps you'll be reminiscing about your bikes in 30 years time when the petrol has run out and its all electric and boring.
