Default Just Found.........

A pic of my old Sportster, The photo was taken outside my barrack block at RAF Uxbridge in London around 1992. I sold it to buy a 1976 Triumph Tiger, worst decision Ive ever made.

Awesome pic, priceless to you I'm sure. Mama and I came across some old pics the other day, it was fun to go through them and see how young, stupid, and innocent we once were. Still stupid, just no longer young and innocent.

Look at the white lettered front tire--I wonder if it was factory, or Testors White Model paint!!!

Been there- done that too long ago!
