Raging Inflation
Andrew-S:
Love all this nostalgic stuff - seeing those fairings reminded me of the one I had fitted to my 71 K1 in 77, I think it was a Rickman with ace-bars and had the turning circle of a London bus so it and they didn't last long! ::)
paul G:
Nostalger and first bike inflation.
Bought one of these Suzuki T125 Stinger for £75 sold it for £50 in 77 now going for 4k+ ;D

First bike 1971 cb250k3 - £325 - apprentice engineer wage was £7 pick up - £3 hp loan, £2 house keep and £2 for petrol/running costs/odd beer (35p gallon and 19p pint) - it's all relevant.

Haha, in the days of the weekly little brown envelope with all the deductions and Net take home pay written on the front by the wages clerk 🤣🤣I though I was very important when I worked somewhere where that actually put the pay slip IN the envelope with the cash 🤣🤣🤣
