strange request

[ozzy1100]

sorry boys this is a strange request and one i would rather not make.
my uncle was a founding menber of the rebals in qld in the late 60s and 70s so i quess u could say he was a old boy, this was in the time before all the bull that happens now.... some of my fondest mems as a kid is him with my arnty on the back of his 140 hp kwaka 9 rolling down our driveway in leather than the sound of those pipes as they left in the only style he knew fast lol
well we lost him the other day and i have been asked if ill be one of the few bikes 2 esort him as he will be on a bike herse from kingaroy 2 blackbut (south east qld) my prob is the only bike i have a monemt is wifes vt 750 and while he did like the bike (i think it was because my 5 foot tall wife could ride it so well lol) i dont feel it would do him justuse ..... so if any 1 has a mod bike or tuff clasic (he loved all the stuff id tell him about the stuff we do now and he would tell me how they did it all before lol over beers) that i could use for the day i would be very greatfull.... it is this comeing friday and no matter what ill ride and i know this is a lot 2 ask from some1 but im sure i could get u the copies of pics of us on ride if u wanted(he was allways a load barsted so i dont think he would mind lol )
so like i said its a strange request for some 1 in the local area thanks

Shit, I missed that. If you can get down the coast and keep an eye on the oil leak on the cam cover as well (might ruin your clothing mate? - I need to get it fixed just don't have time or space just now) then you can borrow my bike.

Sorry for your loss Lynton,
I know a few of the Reb's & they're all good blokes.
One of the original founding members even had the exact same name as mine.
Ride with pride mate & as already said, do him proud.
