Re: interesting bikes found randomly..
It takes a certain sort of chap to spend that much on a rarity that is actually undesirable.

Cheesy should ditch the Nippon jolly and go Earlystocks racing instead...

Re: interesting bikes found randomly..
Saw an article on the Comic webshite about new bikes at Sammy Miller's, I spotted this and I think it looks aces!

a 1963 Victoria 155 49cc, otherwise known as the ‘Tin Banana’. Although produced in mass quantities, very few have survived and are now extremely rare and sought after and a seldom seen Art-deco styled bike.

Nope, my racing days are long gone, though I was more riding round being timed than actual racing, if track days had existed in the 80s I doubt if I'd have ever raced on tarmac.KungFooBob wrote: Tue Aug 08, 2023 6:31 pm Cheesy should ditch the Nippon jolly and go Earlystocks racing instead...

Another £2.5k single from China but it looked like quite a pretty thing, at least in the sunshine.

Re: interesting bikes found randomly..
I'll apologise in advance, this probably should go in either WTAF bikes or random pics!!
But I suppose that in a way it's interesting
I flipped between laughing out loud or staring and repeating WTAF

Re: interesting bikes found randomly..
A friend works in the car trade, posted this on Instagram. I guess he was delivering or collecting a car, and found these.
Whatever your views on Bimmers, it's a shame they're just dumped.
Don't know what the fourth one is.
