I've only ever had 3 cars and a Transit van in ma life. Not one of them was any good, but I've had 26 motorbikes though that I've stripped down to every last nut & bolt and rebuilt them. The best was ma Laverda Jota, closely followed by ma Beckett tuned RD 400, which was quicker round the IOM circuit than ma Z750

Mine was denim blue. Carried out a bare shell reatoration/conversion with the aim of stage rallying it. I didn't though as it was so good when it was finished I couldn't bare the thought of wrapping it around a tree lol. Spent close on, if not over, 5 figures on it
