Your memory is astounding Hal - Obviously the lack of mobile phones for the first 20 years of their inception has stood you in good stead

Probably after I had it then. I bought it from Allins (Cambridge) for £675 (£350 plus a Yamaha YR5) in 1978 with dodgy paint and a set of LE Sport chambersEl Presidente wrote:.Hal wrote: The one he did PLENTY of miles on, riding all over Europe to at least Portugal and Greece?

and sold it via MCN in 1980 (ish) for £900 to a guy from Bristol I think, he turned up in a van with some mates and took it away with his mates holding it up in the back for 200 miles... It had a new crank and top end and had about 18K on the clock, chucked in a good set of Denco's as well

'Kin 'Ell my mum slaved away and KNITTED my jumpers you posh git! . . Oh, AND made my bloody jeans and denim jacket (she made that One I am wearing ) . .. Yep, I am serious But there came a time . . . and I am sure she was gutted to find out I preferred to BUY my own clothes to save my mates ripping the pi$$ out of me ! 
. . . In fact she couldn't believe it when I spent £3 on a pair of South Sea Bubble brushed denim "Loons" Posted: Tue May 15, 2012 8:25 am
Mustard sofa! Those were the days.
If you think you had it bad, when my dad's jumper got beyond repair my mum cut the sleeves off and re-knitted them into a pair of trousers for me! Feckin' KNITTED trousers. Okay I was only eight but my mates crucified me.
She could knit while watching Z cars.

Okay, if we're doing 1979.....
Aged 14 and not into football.......
I nicked the GTX poster from Woolley Edge services on the M1. A lot of the local bikers used to meet there in the evenings and me and my mate used to go up on our pushbikes to ogle the bikes and dream.

I must admit I would find it hard to believe anyone actually bought a pair of those without the use of a set of thumb screws and a water board on the part of the salesmanEl Presidente wrote: .

Looks like Paul owned it (and still does!) AFTER you! There is a report in an early KTC newsletter about his "European Adventures" on your ex bike
