Hi,
I've been around BM's for 34years and K's for 27 years. I came across this Forum last week, which gives some idea of my computer abilities, an area where grandchildren come in very useful.
Motorcycle camping rallies are my current obsession, with the Vincent Owners Club and the Federation of Sidecar Clubs; last year I managed 28 rallies from February through to November. The first one this year will be the first weekend in march.
I've had 15 years of racing with pre and post war British singles and a few years trials riding, always with the competition bikes towed behind whatever sidecar outfit I was running at the time. Currently it's my '86 K100RS with a Martello sidecar.
My solo K was given away by Bike Magazine in '84, painted by Dream Machine in their two-tone blue colour scheme and I bought it from the winner in '85, when his insurance expired and he couldn't afford to insure it. That started my affair with K's and prompted me to build the K outfit in '88. There's nothing on the market that appeals to me at present, so I'll stick with my lovely K's.
