Hi all,
I went down to the monthly clssic bike club meeting. Some really interesting machinery turned up. Here are a few photos.
How about this ol outfit, it looked almost as new.
A cracking beezer 650, any body know what model this mybe ?
A very clean Guzzi Le Mans 850, it’s for sale at R25,000. That’s around US3100.
He's my K11 tucked away amongst other beemers. Its an older photo taken in winter.
An absolutely immaculate Honda CBX 1000, there were four other examples of this model at today’s meeting , none as smart as this example
Just for Drikko a really clean Laverda Mirage, we don't ee to many Laverda's at the club.
Here is a very scruffy K100. I expect most owners would be be ashamed to take this one out in such a condition. Look at the un clean oil on the fork legs. One interesting point...how is the bike help up..Notice the "missing" side stand. At some time an owner swapped the stand to the right (hand) side.
Here is a neat genuine Honda monkey bike, real neat. I wonder if the owner rode it to the meeting !!!
Here is a superb Messerschmitt bubble car, this must be work a few bob.
Here is a damm clean 68' Bonnie, it just needs the original bars to made it DECENT

Nah the hack is on the left side which is right....
Nice mirage there but I always hated that body work, ugly as, now did you leave that guzzi there or do the right thing and buy it! Would be worth 3 times that over here!! _________________ K1100RS '97

One of the few advantages of living in SA is the number of countries you can drive through while staying on the correct side of the road.. like Bots, Zim, Namibia, Swazi, Lesothto, Zambia, Kenya..and so on.
However it would be even better if these countries had TAR on their roads. _________________ ******************************
