My 250LC

drzjohn — Sat, 14 Nov 2009 07:00:16 GMT

I brought my 250lc back in 1986, my dad passed away in 1988 and I sort of lost interest in it
So it was stored at my mums house, this year i decided that it was time to get her back to how she looked back in 1988.It will be 20 years next year since she was last on the road.
I made a start on the engine, the crank had siezed up solid !
Sadly my mum passed away on the 27th october and I am struggling to get motivated, but I need something to focus on,
so this rebuild is going to be in memory of Mum and Dad xxx

This is what she looked like in 1988

I was made redundant this morning along with a third of the workforce. I'm hoping something comes along soon.

new regulations planned for later this month will see bikers/car drivers forced to pay all of their motoring legal cost even if they're found not guilty of whichever offence they are accused.if you challange a ticket & win you will still have to pay your own legal costs.please sign the petition that is already running.

Ace Cafe "Blue Haze" Day '09

standardstan — Thur, 22 Oct 2009 19:28:48 GMT

This year's event is on 1st November.

I have spoken to a couple of people who are interested, so it would be good to do a ride in from Chelsea Bridge if we can get it together.

The day has suffered from poor attendance and bad weather (probably related) the past few years, so I hope we can get it going again this year.

Yes I know the food's not gourmet, the North Circ. is Camerasville Arizona and the marshaling was shocking, but it's an excuse for a ride-out in November.

another toy from wales....to wakey...

garyrdrobbo — Sun, 20 Sep 2009 13:53:37 GMT

i am the 3rd owner now and its all there.
matching and as per brand new from towsend motorcyles in london.

it was one of a few limited editions done in the day to "shift" some ...painted by dream machine.

paintwork has scars and wheels /frame swinger been touched brush painted and few rusty parts and corrotion etc.
forks pitted badly so i am gonna strip it and make it nice.
however i am not "nos-ing it"
keeping it as per dealer but just re-painting and tidying up.it will need new brakes and a few minor repairs but its all frame work thats need doing.
body work will be left as it is.
seat mint and it runs good.

stock 12a no washer in down pipe though but pipe rattles inside so have to fit a new one ...a nos part but thats only cos i have one.

reat is spot on.

took for a 100 mile run on it and runs well good but 100 miles max..those bars/position is a tad uncomfy...
lad i got it off was pleased its gone to a good home.all i am gonna do it tidy it up.
and keep original finish as per the dealership once it was sold.

has original service book 2 keys and handbook.
also 7k original miles!!!!

bargain i just had to have it.

hope you like it.!!!!!
