JamesStv Posted February 16, 2024 Share Posted February 16, 2024 Does anybody own one that is concealed? I would be OK with a project bike, provided that the back area is not in a state of disrepair. What do you possess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmericaMonster Posted February 16, 2024 Share Posted February 16, 2024 I do not own one, nevertheless, it was the first mechanised entity that I was able to use. My friend's younger brother discovered a deserted one, and we joyfully rode it until it was stolen by someone. Presumably, the individual's age was about 16 or 17. Abundant enjoyment.

Kiddokt Posted February 16, 2024 Share Posted February 16, 2024 Are you suggesting that we should eliminate the larger items, John? The CB1100 motorcycle, which is now located in the kitchen, is one of the most recent ones that I recall you possessing. π A 90 horsepower vehicle will not provide sufficient pulling power, thus it would be more appropriate to go for another vehicle with more horsepower. π Are you all doing well?

JamesStv Posted February 16, 2024 Author Share Posted February 16, 2024 Playfully impudent (although likely accurate). I have a sentimental attachment to it, Dave. When I was 16 years old in 1978, my father brought me to his workplace. As a result, I want to acquire a vehicle from that time period, namely the version with round headlights, to add to my garage. We must arrange a meeting this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grundysp Posted February 16, 2024 Share Posted February 16, 2024 I also have a beautiful photograph of me riding a horse energetically across a field in Wales. I estimate that I was perhaps 11 or 12 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grundysp Posted February 16, 2024 Share Posted February 16, 2024 Poor resolution (it's a photograph taken with a cell phone of a photocopy of the original picture). However, you get the concept. Observe the immense happiness! I remember my mother being really appalled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grundysp Posted February 16, 2024 Share Posted February 16, 2024 Without intending to divert the discussion, I must mention that Glynhir Mansion/Farm in Ammanford is an exceptional location. A few years ago, I embarked on a bike expedition and paid a visit to the place. Surprisingly, it is still in the ownership of the same family, who even recognised and recalled my presence! There were absolutely no regulations - it was a perfect and peaceful setting. At my current age, I rode on a Honda motorbike with one of the farm boys, who was around 14 years old, while we drove an ancient Massey Ferguson tractor into the town. We purchased a substantial quantity of supplies for a nocturnal meal in the hay barn and transported it back. Varying periods!

AmericaMonster Posted February 16, 2024 Share Posted February 16, 2024 During my childhood, my cousins' family engaged in agricultural activities. Engaging with extensive manipulation of machines and bicycles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmericaMonster Posted February 16, 2024 Share Posted February 16, 2024 Furthermore, with further reflection. The father of my friend was involved in the potato industry. Imagine myself and his son doing circular skids in a Volvo 245 on a grassy terrain when we were around 14 years old or such π Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angurita Posted February 16, 2024 Share Posted February 16, 2024 Noteworthy fact: The first iteration of the super cub, equipped with a 4-stroke pushrod engine, was characterised by its remarkable simplicity, to the extent that it lacked an oil pump. The lubrication system used splash lubrication, with a dipper connected to the large end to distribute oil onto the crank bearings, connecting rod, and piston. Despite your negligence, you were unable to successfully eliminate even a single individual. Similar to others in this group, I operated a vintage C50 motorbike in the rural areas when I was 14 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wordcar Posted February 16, 2024 Share Posted February 16, 2024 The 'Clunker' C70 served as my off-road bicycle throughout my adolescent years, coincidentally, we lived on a farm (a recurring pattern!). Abundant enjoyment. I considered purchasing one myself with the intention of converting it into a vintage off-road bicycle. However, I was taken aback by the exorbitant pricing of these antiquated bicycles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
