R100RS Park Lane Special

[Steptoe]

Never seen or heard of one of these before ? Anyone throw any light on it ?

Not used since 1996. I thought the £300 i paid was far too much..

 

[Decster]

taking a guess, the colour scheme is what determines it as a 'special'....

£300.00 how the fuck do you manage that? Do they think you are a charity?

that looks a cracker, not sure about the green seat though,

£300 what a bargain!

 

[Crapaud]

I could be persuaded to take it in part exchange against my Jeep....

 

[Steptoe]

It's only done 2800 miles.....

I reckon Paul Davies at Bahnstormer Maidenhead would know something about that, being as he was sales manager at BMW Park Lane at the time of these beasties.......

 

[Rob Farmer]

Are you surprised with that colour scheme?

Nice bike apart from that. 1980 as well?

 

[Ogmios]

With that Hughie Green seat?!

... Do they think you are a charity?

Yes ~ he suffers from a 'visual impairment'

 

[chrisshrops]

I will give you £600 ,double your money perfect

 

[jackassdave]

Park Lane? An Easter Road special more like.

I seem to be in the wrong places at the wrong times!

Nice work Steptoe. That is a great buy.

Park Lane Special. Presumably it was owned by a pimp that had girls working the hotels in Park Lane.

Park Lane Special. Presumably it was owned by a pimp that had girls working the hotels in Park Lane.

I did my work experience at the International Sports Club, 45 Park Lane, in the mid eighties, the establishment had just been sold by Hugh Hefener but still retained the girls (minus the bunny ears and tail) night club,restaurants, casinos and three kitchens.
I can say that I never saw the Park Lane Special, but then again my mind was on other things at the time....

I did my work experience at the International Sports Club, 45 Park Lane, ..

I seem to remember that being on the corner of Mount street or South street. Can't remember which. When we were kids (aged 25 ) a load of us used to cycle up there at night and stand and watch the bunny girls in the upstairs windows....
