Hi there, Yeah it was indeed way back but many deaths resulted in destroying the fun!! Its a proper chore now
Was that where Skellerns is now? I used to go the Camp pub Grimley had an X7 and a RD350LC early 80's !!
It was in another league altogether, rode it to LeMans in 1983 watched Alan Carter win the 250 race then rode home in the snow!!! Ha ha Good times
I had a 250LC in 1981, one of the first (V reg) had it sat waiting on my 17th Birthday with L plates, the world went crazy after that, just sneaked in before the rule changes. Passed test at 17 and 3 months and bought a Z1000 :Happy: turbocharged it at 18 - skinny 110 & 120 tyres and single opposed piston brakes to go with the turbo :Wideyed: good old days for sure!
Hey Alistair, only got it back yesterday so not tried it out with the new gearing but its all ready to go ...Cant wait to get out !

I had my X7 waiting on 17th birthday in 81 too.... Z1000 turbo'd at 18 respect that you are still here matey
