Jesus died for his own sins...NOT MINE !
Just to throw a spanner in the works......i broke my teeth on Lambrettas in the 80's. But not ya lights n mirrors MOD bollox, i used to either cut them down for racing or chop'um up , tune the fuck outta the engine with Honda and Yamaha parts. Ive built some mad-ass lamb-chops featured in the SCOOTERING and SCOOTER SCENE mags back in the early 80's, one was over 9ft long with HD girder forks[:0]. I even fitted a HD ignition switch mounted in the Bandit frame once[quote:
most of us old farts cut our teeth on chops and lowriders, and some of us even started streetfighters back in the 80s

Got some mates in the club, bloody nutters!!
Did you used to do the Magna Carta??
Hate to say it on this forum but i've had some good drinks with the Scooter boys, bloody mentalists and a lot less attitude like you get from some so called "Bikers"!!
Cheers'en.
I think the Hardly Rideables didnt come out until the 90's mate. Alot of scooterists that moved onto big bikes went into the chop side, but thats enuf of scrots n chops on a STREETFIGHTER FORUM coz the big boys might get angry
Nah, not yet Jim. I've got it in bits again, building a new manifold and exhaust. I'll get it on the Dyno when we re-tune it.quote:u desrve a medal for turboing that twin mate ..oh wait uve got one aint ya

personally i dont care what anyone rides ...for instance if it wernt for half the world riding honda 90s the firm would never had the development money for some of the exotic stuff that comes down the line .quote:Originally posted by exile

you gotta realise that for all of the jap companies motorcycles is a small part of their business
i mourn the uk bike industry for its lack of foresight,although one brit seems to have had the guts to keep the industry alive back home
dont particularly think italian stuff is all that... cause it seems the stylin depts outrank the engineers...
american stuff is only held up by a misplaced loyalty to an old idea and that they cant get their head around more that 2 cylinders
give the chinese a few more years and theyll be a force to reckon with
i like all styles of bike i wouldnt limit myself to just one ..i just prefer the streetfighter style of bike
just my opinion
