Nice machine which looks well loved. May I suggest a paint job...
Is that a Puch Maxi?
Dave, Dave, Dave..what have you fucking done? At least, I see, you have the gallon of petrol handy for when it inevitably goes wrong.........and I take it this means you don't want the pink Sportster I found for you?

well an update on the shovel.............its not happening i could not get any kind of warranty or guarantee for even 3 months so it was to much of a gamble to give up my bike plus £1500 however the dream is not dead yet , admittedly its floundering a bit like a fish out of water but the dream lives on to fight another day ............................................
You need a Triumph Tiger in your life Dave.
......doesn't he just......? And one that would come with a warranty......
