Mark, don`t be concern about the money, the issue here is that its gone to a fellow that is in my club and it will be restored and raced, you will see it at the next Bannaza week end . Thats the good news.

I'm not the least concerned about the money Dave. I got my price, you got yours so all's well ;). The only thing that gets to me a bit is that every time you buy a bike, no matter what it is, you tell all and sundry that this is the bike and it'll be a keeper. Then within a week or two you invariably put it on eBay. If you just quietly went about wheeling and dealing like most of us do and didn't go through with the 'bike I always wanted' charade, nobody would give you any stick at all.

Dave, you're a likable good bloke and one of the sports real characters but you set yourself up for the sucker punch every time.

i envy you in a way Dave as i get attached to my bikes and don't want to let them go and there fore don't get to experience others models/makes.

i started riding in 77' as a 13 y/o and have never ridden the following but would like to ride one day

CR480RD 83' ( run out of time at CD7 with a swap with Shane Wilson)
an early KTM,
any montesa  (hint Ross),
any bultaco,
any ossa
any Husky (would love a ride on an Auto or 430 white tank model like big k's 1983)
a KX500
A CCM

so really i have not experienced all that the bike world has to offer. my loss. where Dave has probably ridden nearly every thing at least once !

Hoony will most likely agree...these things are somewhat rare and revered. Thats the only reason i bought it.

Firko you should have kept the DT and sold me that PE of yours. ;)

My shed never has less in it even if you clean it, mymum was mad at me because she couldn't get the mower out becuase it was behind a few bikes but my bikes are all going to a shed near you David so if you want to store a bike I could help you in September/October may help you find that keeper none of my bikes leave the shed. ;)

Hoony, your welcome to have a ride on my 360 Bully sometime.
