Ace cafe today.

[mick]

Some of you will know I have more then I bike  , so today was Cruiser Day @ The Ace Café London, I went on my Honda VTX1300 ,

I left my house at 9am this morning and got back in at 7.45pm did just short of 500 miles 

only had 2 downpours to ride through and the rest of the day was dry very sunny and warm 

the place was very busy with Indians and Victory motorbikes having a big meet there,

there was also some old British bikes, Jap bikes and a nice old Moto Guzzi , enjoy the photos cheers Mick.

Iv got nothing against Brit bikes its just Enfields were dated in the 40's and no faster than a 125 Bantam.

I just picked up on the bullet comment

Hi Pete yeah I put my F1 engine in over the winter and its running great now  ,

spent a bit of time a couple of weekends ago setting float heights etc and got it running sweet now,

ive bought LPM side panels for it, a ducktail seat and new mirrors and K1 clocks I know there not correct but have you seen the price of KO clocks  ,

I still think about selling it as a job lot with my F1 and spares ?,

i hardly use it , i could really do with the space & i could do with a bigger newer van for my man & van jobs  , cheers Mick.

[UK Pete]

Will that mean leaving the sohc scene when you sell up
Pete

[mick]

No i'll still hang around  any way I haven't put them up for sale yet  cheers Mick.

[UK Pete]

Yes its a tough one when it comes to selling , i sometimes think F--- it i going to sell some of my bikes, i get them out clean them up have a ride and then change my mind, lots of my bikes just dont get used and yet i still cant part with them,

Thanks for the pictures mick, seems like a decent ride out for you. There is usually some good interesting stuff there and always worth a trip, I was looking at UKPete's K1 there when he put me onto this site a couple of years back.

I think bikes are a bit like cats in that they seem to choose you as owners and don't often leave once in a good home.
