I like the yellow accents on that cement mixer.
Hey Tricky, is this not more ‘you’ ? ;-)
Make repairs as you go ?
I know of a nice and tidy T140V for sale...in Blue and White..
Go on........
I believe you may be thinking of the T140D Paul ?
They made them in US & UK Spec versions. Both had Lester alloy wheels with the US Spec bike having a 2 into 1 exhaust system
I have one, got it years ago but only got it going last summer.
I like that Bonni
I have to confess that in the late 70s early 80s my then impression of Brit bikes was they had severe reliability issues were sluggish, clumsy and suffered from very poor build quality, being born in 1960 I had been around a group of lads 2and3 years older than me who all bought fs1e’s in 74/5 then progressed to RD 125s GT185s and someRD250s and GT 250s, thus shaping my own choices toward the Jap manufacturers, I went from an AP50 to RD250 a400-4 a550-4 Z1000 Z900 followed by more Z900s and Z1000s. We also rode with a group of lads 5-10 years older than us who all had British stuff lots of banter between the Brit and Jap owners about pros and cons of each other’s choices of manufacturers. When out for group rides we always had 1 or more Brit bike with mechanical problems, something else which always stuck in my mind was the Brit boys had A thing about only riding at 55-60 mph as a group, whilst the rest of us preferred to keep speeds much higher often leading to the group splitting up and some friction when the Brit boys eventually arrived at our destination. Hence my overall impression of Brit stuff.
All that being said I now find myself drawn to some of the Brit stuff from the late 60’s early 70’s and might well own one sometime in the near future.
