I wrote that I bought a bike a week ago, I finally took a photo of it last night. I also found that If I park the bike at the end of the spot I will always have a good spot. (see the note at the bottom)


my toy

I got in an argument with a neigbor that I had taken an unused spot with the bike and left the spot open with the bike at the end of it all day. She said I should move the bike during the day so i dont take that spot. Then she left to go to the store, and I moved the bike into the spot in front of her place. She came to my door as soon as she got home telling me I had to move my bike so she could park. I replied that During the day My bike will take up one spot and at night when I get home the bike will have a spot and the car will have one just like she asked, she got the idea that i was being nice in the begining by parking both vehicles in one spot.

heres mine

I got in an argument with a neigbor that I had taken an unused spot with the bike......The country with the most roads in the world and they still argue about parking!!!!!!!!!!!

Come to Scotland where they built all the houses with almost no driveways (and when they do buildem you cant open the doors cause its so narrow)

Just over 2 weeks ago, I bought the bike that I had from new when I was 17/18. I looked on ebay for over a year until I found its exact clone - in this guise it was only made for a year.

I have a bit of work to do to get it on the road - like completing its engine rebuild. Its 27 years old after all!

This isnt a pic of my bike, but its a carbon copy.

A 1976 kawasaki KH250 triple 2 stroke.

ooohhhhh Apprilia, not sure how it's over there, but here they are far and few between, in fact Ive only seen one in my life, and would kill for one.

A buddy of mine has a triumph speed triple and a ducati monster, he's looking for an Aprilia to complete his exotic collection.

See over here thay are exotic.

is that an af125 aprilia or a futura?

the bike is an af1 futura 125, so you are right on both counts.

Most people who dont know anything about bikes mistake it for a 250 or a 400, as it looks bigger than the newer RS's.

just biding my time until I buy a larger bike.

I guess there is a general interest in speed amongst people here, and lets face it, most bikes are the fastest things on the road

I had an Rg500 for a while, never lost a race on it, mind you, i didn't try against anything bigger than a 900. Nearly got killed on it so opted for 4 wheels and a centrally heated tin box, wouldn't mind a bec in the end i spose

Here's my bike. It's a Honda Revere. 600ish V twin shaft drive. I will put it back on the road one day, honest
