Take a peek at these bikes.............
« on: April 11, 2016, 09:48:12 AM »
A member of the TOMCC Forum posted this link to a French Motorcycle Dealer called Legend Motorcycles in Lille.

Given the recent comments on the sohc Forum regarding the 'Asking prices and real values' of Hondas.......and whether they were worth it or not, take a look at this Website......although I should warn you that you will first need to pack the Wife/ partner and the Kids off to the Cinema, make a pot of tea and some sarnies and settle down for a reet good journey through some splendid machinery.

Now: 2008 CB1300S, CB750K4, 1970 Bonneville. Various other 1960's 650 Triumph T120's/ TR6's/ TR6C's (all in bits...many, many bits unfortunately). Previous: 2007 CB600FA, 1976 CB500 Four. BMW F800ST. GS750E. ZZR1100. CB1300 (2). ZXR1200S. VFR800. CB750 Nighthawk. CX500. XS500 Yam. Suzuki GT500. BSA A10. Various Lambrettas. Zundapp Bella (honest).

I cant see any HONDA and only see some prices. But a lot of sold bikes.

Cool pics anyway.
cheers, Uli

Sorry but there are only 2 bikes there I would like to own. Whilst I appreciate the beauty of some of them and can understand the effort gone into restoring them I must admit to never ever liking any old motorcycles when I was younger so I can't make myself like them now.

The only 2 I'd give houseroom to are the Kwack 9s, does that make me a philistine?
Heretic! I'm surprised the rude word censor on this forum didn't block such obscenities as the "K" word! :o
