will you manage to post piccies of that too please

and why you got a hair dryer in the 1st piccy

eh I love my Vespa. She's lovely and goes faster than most beetles and besides I can't drive things with 4 wheels cos I tend to lose track and end up in fields.

look me astride me hairdryer......

So much for the patch it up and mot job Mart thought he was buying.

Nearly a hundred hours to get to this point. Mart has done all this on his own after work 2 evenings a week till gone midnight. If I didn't love Wilbur so much I'd be jealous!

i'm only pulling ya leg
i still wish i had my lambretta 150LI from when i was a kid but that went to the scarp yard in the sky after i imbeded it in the side of someones car
100 hours on the bug resto, dont worry it took me 4 n half yrs to my 66 then sold it once i finished it cos i was that pissed orf with it

i'm more used to building bikes so doing a full job on a car ,well, just the time scale involved does my head in but it should be worth it. and its about 10 years since i did any work on a bug but it all comes flooding back. one step forward two steps back an all that lol

yup that'll be about right on the bug front.

i not long ago sold my mk1 Bandit 1200 and i miss her like crazy...would love to get another bike but my dodgy knee wont have it plus ive got too many bloody motors in my drive

I've crashed a few scooters along the way but I'm getting used to the Vespa now. She's a 200 and so just right for me. Especially as I'm a delicate little lady!!!! Not like the other half crashing round the country on his toy.

And here's one he built earlier (which he's much too modest to tell you)

picked my new toy up last saturday, which prob explaines why ive not been on here much.

and have fun with the bug, ive not long finished mine and hes called jerry

nice duke mate, i do like twins. had two rsvr's a 51 plate and a 56 plate both lovely bikes. more involving to ride than the gixxer. keep telling myself to get rid of the bike and put the money into the bug but can't bring myself to do it.

ive got a 750ss too. thing is the 916 is supposed to be a bay camper but lack of room saw to that so it sits with the other duke looking luvverly and getting polished to within an inch of its life .

very nice
where abouts in hereford / herefordshire are you from
i grew up in kington (please dont hold it against me!!) and lived in the big hereford bulmers smokey joe for a few years

ive friends in hereford too

honest, i really have friends
