I looked at RC390s on ebay and there's a brand new 2017 one on there for £3500, then I was looking at something else on the LC forum and there was a picture of a YPVS on there https://rdlccrazy.proboards.com/thread/ ... 385?page=4 (half way down) and I knew Iccy was right, what I want is a YPVS and that's what I should get on with, still the best looking bike ever made

Not quite, but almost

If we're doing blurry me-me-me-me pics then here's mine, 1987 ish - my photographer was slightly less shit than yours so my ultra cool and stylish red boots may clearly be seen not to be brown

Unfaired ones were better (well, except for the CDIs )

Ah red... OK, more like a garden gnome then

They were cheap your honour

Old bike stuff from the 80's was super flimsy compared to stuff now, I found my old FT racing boots a while back and they were like goatskin slippers

My racing leathers had a 2mm layer of crappy foam on knees and elbows.

I had a one piece Sheene replica suit made by TT leathers, single thickness, single stitching and a bit of upholstery foam was all the padding or armour it had, fortunately I never went fast enough to fall off.

This is possibly the best looking motorcycle I've ever owned, I just couldn't get on with the riding position for some reason and I always preferred to ride my LC, so I sold it, but I really regret it and would buy it back.

I like the 'Fuck You Boi' numberplate.

No, it's fuck your bottom.

Needed the Bumming hat as a permanent fixture.
