POLICE ADMIRE S3A
Posted: Wed Apr 06, 2016 5:26 pm
After finally getting my BSA C15 working properly ( it's like a new machine, and a joy to ride),
It was time to get the S3A out and make sure its all working OK
.
It hasn't been out of the shed for months.
Charged the battery before hand, fresh petrol,
1st kick - a splutter,
2nd kick- bit more of a splutter,
3rd kick - started, HOORAY , lots of smoke and lovely noise !!! ( thanks Higgsey ) awesome...
Of I go for a little ride, about 4 miles in total.
In places it give a little burst, it has to be done, doesn't it ?
Only a little way to get home, about 3 turnings, I am aware of a Black Volvo behind me, I turn left, he turns left, I turn right, he turns right.
Usually if I think someone is following me I don't go straight home, which is what I did in this instance.
look behind me again, he's still following me !
I know that I'm riding towards a dead end, but I can turn around and get out easily, he realizes this as well, and then the BLUE lLIGHTS start flashing in the front grille, OH SHIT ! , unmarked car !!
Its the Rozza's, they must have seen me giving it the beans !!!!
The window comes down, and he says, " that there's nothing to worry about, I just wanted to talk to you about the bike ".......
phew, thats a relief.
It turns out, he's a biker.
You know the rest," haven't seen one of these for years " ",he loves the smell and noise " etc,etc,
His father used to own a Kawasaki dealership.
We chatted for 15/20 minutes, then went our separate ways.
First time its happened to me, I usually get a ticket or something....
HAPPY DAYS..
