Hi Chaps, was glad to see the forum is up and running again, hopefully some old faces may find their way back here, and some new ones would be good too hey.

I bought a lovel...

NICE..... Can't beat the torque or the sound of a V twin bike, though I'll admit to liking em best oriented the other way a la Guzzi or, may I even admit, an old CX

Thats pretty sweet John, a pal of mine was selling a similar Motobecane, girder forks, hand gear change etc for not a lot of cash the other week but sadly that didn't have a number or a v5c or I would have been very tempted.
