Excellent, it's much less harsh than Leyland White. Good choice mate.

All done, painted at last, just some tidying up to do. It started up straight away and drove half way back to mine then stopped and completed the journey on a tow rope! Oh well another little job to do ! Dunno what stopped it because my mate was driving it back, but I'll forgive it the odd tantrum as its been stood so long.

T500 Cobra, mmm yes. I built this one a few years ago, modelled it on Ogri's bike, fully road legal. Brilliant fun, always regretted selling it. Its now in Scotland, anybody seen it?

Ogri..... what a bloody hero! Loved Kickstart too. That's all I used to buy Bike magazine for to be honest. I think I had a stash of Ogri pages somewhere.

RD200. Lovely little bike. If you ever get a freebie Honda CD or CM bag it for me, ok? I would love to restore one.

Sadly I am not allowed to ride bikes anymore (by Mrs PBK) but I would love to fix one up.
