Slider Porn.

Another shot of my JAP from early '75, together with my SC 500 Chookie in Road Racing trim..........it was a better road racer than a dirt tracker !!..........still kicking myself for parting too early with my JAP...

[Slider29]

Unreal!!! I go away for a couple of days and you dirty old buggers get up to no good. Utter filth!!
You should be ashamed of yourselves. Slider Porn,.......not to shabby.

Such a shame we don't see the sliders mixing it in with the chookies these days. Some great looking sliders in this thread!

Just for you Graeme.........my Chookie about to mix it with the sliders in the Over 60's Unlimited at Temora.......I'm sure I will get closer to them this year !!

I love Gibbo's Elstar Jawa in that last shot, I'm looking forward to getting my B50 Elstar up & running to join in.
As much as I admire and respect the engineering and history of the US based Flattrackers, to me they look awkward & heavy compared to the flowing lightweight lines of a Slider.

This Jawa is purported to be one of Ivan's

I'm with ya on that, Steve, I really like Gibbo's style, he's there at just about any meeting that's on, no bling, trademark blue overalls, just gets out there an does the bizzo.
If ya get the Elstar runnin', I'll try an con 'Er Indoors to give me dispensation ta come an rattle bars with ya!

This Jawa is purported to be one of Ivan's

Every second Jawa that comes up for sale seems to be an ex Ivan bike. Ivan was the worst culprit, back when he was wheeling and dealing old speedway tackle he'd buy (usually via Aussie Bob) some Nobodies Jawa, take it home, give it a mini makeover and it'd reappear a week later for sale as an ex Ivan Mauger bike......which literally speaking I suppose is true .

That's why I was careful of the description, despite the name on the seat,Firko , he was good at that !!

Look at that Elstar with a K70 on the rear, there's proof for the tyre Nazi's.
Don't forget Foss if I can get in touch with the guy in the UK that has my box of goodies and manage to get em out here I've got a JAP Elstar frame with your name on it.
I've sent numerous email messages over the last 18 months with no reply but I'm about to set a PI on to him.
I have to agree, anything with a B&W check seat on it aint necessarily a genuine Ivan.

I don't care who owned that Jawa longtracker but I wish I owned it!!!  That is a ripper. I'm sure it would look better in my shed than yours.

Here's a cuppla Goddens,



It must be fast, it's RED



I wish I'd never sold my Godden GR, the only thing that ever scared me down the back straight of Sapphire, the poor thing is chained in this bastards pool room, just cos it had some history before me owning it.

[Slider29]

Yep,
That Godden Jawa is nice Foss. Is it local?
