Ashford Classic Bike Show
« on: April 06, 2015, 03:31:17 PM »
Did anyone else go to this years Ashford show.
Apart from a nice, but small selection of show bikes. It was rather disappointing, there seemed to be rather lot of scrap metal dealers. Sorry used part dealers!

Hi.
I was working about a 100 yards from Ashford Market this morning and spied some very nice bikes going up and down the road. Unfortunately was unable to escape work so I'm going to the one at Ham Street on 28th June instead.
May see you there
Regards
Julie

I'll definitely be going to Hamstreet Julie, it's a nice ride out from where I live. Hopefully my 550 will be running properly, if not it'll be on my Gpz 900.

Not single 350 part from what I could see Roy. Most of the decent parts were For British bikes.

rear foot rests with those seriously expensive exhaust bolts £6-50 and the guy gave me some Yoshimura
head gaskets and  other bits.
another stall guy had nothing but 750 stuff
