 That is an RSV-R. I had the cooking RSV with lesser suspension and heavier wheels.

 

Never got on with mine, but still have an itch for one of these. I really shouldn't,  but any more details?

He looks about 18  :shock:  , flies an Airbus for work   :-D   and   has a metallic blue Lexus...  (and gold stripes on the shoulders of his shirts.)  I'll get his number , I know diddley squat about motorbikes i'm afraid . I haven't even seen it !

I bought a  Sherpa T once , and fell off it, and that was the end of motorbikes for me.

For Sale, new and never been worn Aprillia jacket, armour and leather, those are spare zips attached to the lining, the most expensive jacket I ever got,  yours for a fraction of that at £125 somewhere in GU2 7XH.  It needs to fit or the protection is not protecting and you'll not be able to do the Serious Biker Gorilla Pose. And I no longer have an Aprillia.

Do you still have the Bultaco by any chance?

Posted

Nope , that was 1986,  i wheeled it up the road and sold it for 50 quid.  I wish now i hadn't... T reg. everyone had a T reg Bultaco , they must have sold thousands !! What ? Did someone on a Bultaco win a major trial the previous year ?

I'd be interested in that - need a new jacket and it'll go with the April RS in the cellar......... I'm in Belgium of course - can you PM me a price posted if possible - or I can pay next time I'm over. Depends upon how quickly you want rid!
