In two minds what to do with these mags, First is just leave them and the second
is frame some of the Ads for the Man cave.
There is some great reading especially about these new wizz bang transistor radio
are they just a passing fad or the real deal, gotta laugh at that, Ads for spark plugs,
Akurbra hats etc.

Tyres were Michelin centre was a hard compound progressing

Harleys werent even around then. Plenty of BSA, and ex NSW police bikes
Triumph saints, trophy and TI20 bonnevilles, the odd Trident and Hurricane.
This was when Honda first released its CB 750 four, straight off the show room floor

What a great bunch of photos. Thanks for sharing.
Riding bikes jumped a generation in my family. Grandad (Dad's dad) told me stories of a Triumph he had back in the 20's or 30's. Belt driven. One local hill, famed for it's length & steepness was always a challenge with the summit being reached with smoke pouring off the slipping belt. Dad never rode & I had to go against his wishes to get my first bike.
Great photos to have, my Dads here tomorrow night, he will enjoy those.
Great photos mate
This is my adventure setup. Patrol with the postie on a motorbike tow hitch mount.

He did enjoy looking over those photos and thought the story you told was great. Comments like "oh thats a so and so...) with his story to follow.Quote:

For those that are old enough to remember............
I firmly believe that motorcycling changed forever with the birth of the Yamaha RD250/RD350 - 2 stroke, IMHO.
Man those things could fly.
I still have my bike licence and I prefer shaft drive to chain. lol
OH&S and silly insurance needs closed a lot of 4x4 and bike activities.Quote:

Thats a great collection of Photos
Sidecar racing was all the rage in days of yore lol be it speedway,
track even grass track.
Ive had a go at Calder swinging from a sidecar awesome experience,
but I loved my unlimited production bikes, till they knocked that on the
head in the 80s I reckon
Loving all the Girder front ends lol
Dad was saying something about the Megaphone pipe, once it came onto the sweet spot it was "hang on".
He had Velocette motor cycles himself and raced dirt, sort of the beginning of motocross, not circuit racing.
He knew all the other bikes well.
The Test was on Friday night so he only had a quick look, should have taken his time as his team didn't do very well!
By the way @roofy the pizza's were superb especially the seafood num num num.
Beer's, Pizza's and Football then good coffee and home made apple pie with ice-cream... great night.
Yeah ive seen some on youtube and they roar!Quote:
