mmmmm,open face with goggle's,not sure about that defo not brylcreem,not enough hair for that !!!!! it should be ready near the 18th,when he fired the demo up,i thought that sound's good.what bike is it,it was the thruxton,i had a decent test ride,a few straight's & twistie's,loved the way it handled & it sounded like a proper bike,can't wait to get it.if i feel the need for speed i've still got my faithful GTR.i'll post some pic's of it when i get it home & polished it.lol.
Its going to be a mellow bellow sound with the joy of biking just for the fun of it :punk:

Charlie isn't old enough to qualify...he's relatively a nipper :yes:
My itch for late 50s early 60s bikes was scratched a couple of years ago an A10 650 Gold Flash and a 500 Velocette Venom adorned the Rev Shed :yes:.................................all those years waiting and then such a disappointment :ohplease: :oops:
Happily they have now gone....I'll settle for a Kawasaki Triple every time :yes:
