hello from North Lincs

Post by will.i.am » Mon Jan 14, 2019 3:50 pm

Afternoon all,

Will from North Lincs, somewhere in between Scunny and Grimsby :D

Been into Cub's for a while, used to have them off road when I was a youth.
My boss said his friend had one I could have for nothing, turned out to be a Suzuki FZ50 :lol:
Beggars can't be choosers, got that to take apart and put back together now. in the process of setting up a workshop for it.
On the lookout for an actual C90 in the meantime

Whatever they are, mopeds from the 70s and 80s still interest the Nostalgista.

No, Vick is a Northern geezer with a Burgman 200, and tiny hands and feet as far as I remember. ;)

The Nostalgista is folks like us who appreciate items we associate with good times in the past. The Nostalgista are why a late '70s Z1 is a £20,000 artefact and not a pile of scrap in the back of some bloke's garage.
