G'day and thanks for the welcome. cheers
« on: January 17, 2011, 11:58:36 am »
it all started as a snotty nosed kid and a BSA BANTAM, now at 49 its like being a kid all over again trying to get the bikes i once had, my latest purchase is a PE175N in the eye's of the ignorant it would look like some old rusty dirt bike but to me it feels just like when i bought one 32 years ago wow, and the best part is i bought it from one of you and feel welcomed back to a lost brother hood.
Hopefully i will be racing this year and to get a licence after 30 years will be weird i will feel like an inposter until iget out there.
cheers pete

Hi Pete, Good to have you here. Hope you get that PE sorted, they were neat little bikes.

Hi mate,

I have a PE 175 T, I was just wondering if you needed any side covers as I have the small round ones that came off the 78-79 model. Is that the same? if so I will send them to you if you live in Australia.

Cheers

They are free, the old owner had all the plastics painted in orange for some reason. I managed to clean the tank and guards but because they didn't fit mine as it is the later model I just put them aside.
If you send me your postal address I will send them to you.

regards
