Had one of those bloody evil things tried to spit you off at every opportunity?
It would run on 2 cylinders then bang in comes the middle cylinder and catch you unawares going round a corner
it had if I remember a set of allseeds and Stan Stevens tuned barrels and a few other mods got it of a m8 bas***he bloody new use to call it christen mind you it did teach you to sort out a bike when it all went pear shaped in a corner
So sorry no rose tinted glasses for that one

Always wanted a 'Widowmaker' big Kwacker triple twostroke but they did say the frame hinged in the middle and was kept together with an elastic band!!!!!!! 8O

Nearly bought a 1979 DT 250 today, for knocking about the green lanes and winter riding but after spending months trying to reduce the credit card bill my missus would have left me. :cry: Great little toy, could have thrown it to the floor and apart from the indicators there is nothing to break! No expensive plastics anywhere.

Should have bought the bike Beamish and that'd have removed probably the 'item' that is most expensive on that credit card;..................the wife!!!!!!! 8O
