    years ago i had an old triumph trophy 500cc twin bought it with a blown motor so i striped it down in my lounge room fixed it up & it ran like a dream after that  Smiley the only problem was as soon as i got it going my wife took it for a ride then claimed it she said it was to nice for the likes of me  Cheesy so i become the official pit crew.
    I've owned heaps of bikes over the years ranging from euro mopeds to big road bikes i love fixing them up.
