Oh no... not another one!
I've done two 125 Super-Dream Renovations & helped the missus do another one, in the last three years..... £1000? Sounds like you got off lightly!
Details! WE WANT DETAILS! Thats what show & tell is all about!
You've shown... now tell!
I could do with a laugh. A slightly sycophantic one, to know I', not the only Super-Dream sufferer, having been pulling the engine for project 4 to bits this afternoon! ____________________ My Webby'Tef's-tQ, loads of stuff about my bikes, my Land-Rovers, and the stuff I do with them!
Current Bikes:'Honda VF1000F' ;'CB750F2N' ;'CB125TD ( 6 3 of em!)'; 'Montesa Cota 248'. Learner FAQ's:= 'U want to Ride a Motorbike! Where Do U start?' |
