749 Sharpey G's 749r

Discussion in '749 / 999' started by Pavey, Jan 14, 2016.

  1. I know a load of us came over here from the DSC forum, where Sharpy G (Graham) had a thread running about his 749R. Anyone know what happened to him, did he sell it, still owns it etc?

    Just though of it the other day, as you do....

  4. He still has it as far as I know.
    I normally bump into him at the Horsham Piazza.

  8. Yup, that sums up Graham. Nice bloke that i have known for many years, but he don't use what he's got. He is like a Magpie for shiney stuff, i think the bike comes out twice a year. Once for mot and service, second Horsham italia thing.
    Also he is all family man at the moment as he has two kids that he dotes on.

  9. Wasn't meant as a slight.
    I for one like to see people enjoying bikes/biking in all sorts of different ways. If that means sitting in a freezing garage with a bastard file, planing your knee in Europe or buying bling for ones garage queenie...then it's all good with me....:upyeah:

  16. I have a Sharpy G cast off .... a signed (Bayliss) carbon seat unit. Bought to replace the standard plastic unit that came on the 2004 R.
