Smick!!!!!    I assume the "muffler" doesn't.... ;) ;D

Bumper did you find a better set of carbies?   Steve and I shared another unwanted thing in common, we both had our best set of racing carbies stolen. >:( >:( >:( I think the roughies on it came from a box of parts marked modified T500 Suzi.

I see the shockers are still around the wrong way. Still looks good but. Use to Love riding my old Venturer(Scouts for 14-18yrs) Leaders BSA500 side car scrambler around Guilford in Vic long after its competitive days and before vmx times (and cops on bikes in the bush) his name was Graeme Hallett someone from the day's will know him it was a BSA500 he use to say it was the first side car in Australia with a suspended side car it was great fun to ride the  power slides you could get with two 15year old boy's aboard with no fear were epic wish I new where it was it got snapped up very quick along with the rest of his bikes after he passed on, which I am still dirty on as his sister was the executor and had know idea what they were not her fault.Thats life but.

'tis a bit sad that they don't let the older outfits on the 'scramble paddock' at HBBC. That would show them off better than having to take on the full 'modern' track.
AND be a bit easier on these 'virgins' bahahaha :D
