haha tony I can just imagine that
Al what is that last bike, I recognize it but the name is driving me mad, I'm sure I had a convo with one of my mates about them and how they're worth a fortune
mac if you still had an original chopper with the gear shift on your cross bar they're worth silly money these days, probably for the nostalgia aspect of it same as the fs1e and other mopeds of the time

Re: odd bikes

PMSL why do I have vision of George and Mildred.Ural or dneiper 650 horizontal twin with a sidecar on.
Utterly useless, but it's got a reverse gear.
One of my funniest memories was in Milton Keynes riding backwards flat out in reverse round a small roundabout with the back wheel coming off the ground in little hops, chirping when it landed each time, with the owner chasing me trying to pull the keys out.
I couldn't see for the tears of laughter.
I'd have one of those, you need a full-length leather coat and a cork hat with goggles, though, or no-one will take you seriously.

Re: odd bikes
strange things happen round here
Not particularly odd, but not seen much, saw one of these outside the curry house a few years ago and loved it. Tried to get one but couldn't, bit later got the Storm

Re: odd bikes
Funny, I've always had a bit of a hankering for Baggies & Mastiffs, despite not having the requisite 38" legs.
I don't get too excited about sportsbikes, but these two have always done it for me:
And despite not having that nostalgic stroker passion, I've always loved these:
The frame! The swingarm!!
And lastly, although I'm turned off by bikes that have obviously just had money thrown at them, I go a bit wibbly over this:

I strangely like that tl1000, strange because I don't normally and often wonder "so why didn't you buy the R?" lol
