KITTYS MAIDEN VOYAGE 😁😁😁😁
« on: June 24, 2021, 07:03:27 PM »
It's been a busy week but at last I found time to take Kitty out on her 1st ride. I've only done 22 miles so a long way to go yet until she is run in 🙄🙄🙄. Kitty is my 60th Birthday present to myself, a couple of weeks early but so what 😁😁😁😁 GCW412N

Nice one Julie. Not quite sold out to the big boys then.

Looks a neat set of wheels - I like the retro badges on the side covers.

Is this one you or Trigger have rebuilt or was it a find?

Trigger restored / built it. The side panel badges are standard for the 500 K1.
