It's one of those big lumpy bikes, no thank.I agree. I'm sure they're excellent pieces of kit. But my concern is the weight; 233kg wet is getting out of my comfort zone these days. Every review I've read praises them highly. If I was 20 years younger, I'd be in the market for that.Dodgy69 wrote: Fri Feb 21, 2025 5:35 pm Quite like these, bit different and maybe a decent holiday bike. The most stylish MG I reckon.

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people or changed who can see it, or it's been deleted.

Maybe it's hosted by a page/group that I've blocked?? (perfectly possible - I block everything on FB that I get in my newsfeed that isn't something I've specifically requested/joined/friended)Count Steer wrote: Wed Mar 05, 2025 4:11 pmRockburner wrote: Wed Mar 05, 2025 3:50 pmFacebook wrote: This content isn't available at the moment

Link works fine here.
I think the sweet spot for 'classic' values is the empty-nester who finds himself flush with cash and has a hankering for the stuff he lusted after but couldn't afford as a youth. These days that puts 70's-80's stuff top of the pile.KungFooBob wrote: Thu Feb 27, 2025 8:55 pm I know it's not 'cheap', but I thought these were worth a good chunk more?
Yes, it was a twin 45. The bike belonged to one of my mates. He built it in the August of that year, rode it to Stormin' the Castle for the bike show and won something. This would have been on the Saturday. On the Monday I went to make an offer on it only to find the angle grinder had come out and it was already chopped up. In readiness for the next build.
