Thanks.  Off I go…...

What @harley dave said, but if your ride ends up looking like this then something has gone horribly wrong!

[Graeme]

@Giles terrorising the streets of Gosvegas on his NSU… :o

[harley dave]

Instructor thought I looked stupid on his 125, so he made me do the test on a Kawasaki ZS750…..I passed

How was the weather in the end?

[Giles]

Wet and by the sea, very windy…....

Congrats!

[Giles]

Unfortunately not.  In UK.  I am now only legally allowed to ride a 125 until I pass 2 more computer tests and 2 more practical tests…...And it has to wear L plates....

[Finkster]

Oops    … keep it up!

[harley dave]

bummer ,when i passed my test you only had to ride around the block without falling off mind you beer was only 17 p (yes thats seventeen) pence a pint for double diamond

[Giles]

When I was originally going to take my test, beer was 11P for a mild and 12P for a bitter.  My BSA 250 Star blew up 2 days before my test, I did not rebuild it in time and then life took over…....

It was like this.  I sold it for GBP100.......

I haven't had much time to do much on my Bonneville for ages, so it's been sitting in pieces while I've been changing pipes and a few other bits and pieces.  I got sick of this state of affairs so decided to put her all back together this weekend so I can actually ride again.  I started her up for the first time with the new Zard Cross pipe…. shoots a 2 foot blue cone of flame out the back! Didn't expect that, but looked pretty amazing!  Sounds pretty phenomenal too

Well done on jumping through the first hoop G

Thanks @MP

flames you say we need to see this in video form if you please

[MP]

I'll see what I can do

[MP]

Well, this evening I went out to the garage with the GoPro, set it up, hit the starter button…. No flame. 
Just sweet, sweet, exhaust noise.
. 
I must say I'm a bit disappointed, I was looking forward to flames every time I start it.  Maybe on down shifts I'll get some.

pour some petrol down there that will get it going
