Name Something You Used To See/ Appreciate, But Is Now No More

1985. Clip-ons, full fairing, endurance-style double headlights, foam mounted clocks, 4 into 1, weighed nothing. This was a revelation. I never had one but I wanted one.

 

The smell of steam locos. Probably the best smell in the world.

 

Furry soap.

 

I've got one of them

 

where? i cant see the pic.....

 

You can, but what happened to yours earlier?

 

i'm not sure. but it didn't turn japanese i can tell you that much... this is a ducati forum ffs.. show some respect....

 

Shut it, this is the white dog shit thread disrespectful dude

 

ahhh... my bad.......

 

exige will remember that back from when e was a lad... in his 40s.. they look pretty old.. ,exige, were they coal powered?

 

I remember them, you would too but it was before your extradition from NZ Hells Torso is old enough to be both our dads

 

It was really the Mk1 that I particularly liked. After that they no doubt improved it but there wasn’t the same amazing wow factor as when the bike first appeared.

 

Mines the rarest of the Mk1's (Single Seat / Dry Clutch / Magnesium bits) - only 300 made (+1000 Yoshi Coloured for the home market) late 1985 for the 1986 race season where they came 1st. 2nd. 3rd, 4th and 5th in the proddy TT

 

Bomb site playgrounds and adventure playgrounds that had no elf n safety features.
