1972 Honda CB750 K2 - Now candy apple red - Ex USA, a DK special - needs a lot more work than I thought - very quickly becoming a DS special...

Torchy, Twizzle and Four Feather Falls were made in the hall of a big house (Islet Park House, now flats) just 1/2 mile from me, before they moved to Slough Trading Estate.
Tex Tucker was Nicholas Parsons.
And just to bring it back to bikes. I had new tyres fitted on my ER6N a few years ago at their first premises on the trading estate which is Pro Tyre. Their more elaborate (Thunderbirds era) buildings were demolished.
