Doesn't it look fantastic  8). Johnny is 100% correct, well done for capturing it as you have done, obviously using a very fast shutter speed on the camera with it being a yellow one  ;)

It's the only bike I've ever had where the speedo is showing 60mph when the bike is still on the stand. Incredible! ;D

Yes I'm afraid there was a duff  batch. Normally yellow ones show 3 figures on the stand 🤔😁

Went to Amlwch Classic Car & Bike show today. Sadly the weather Gods weren't in a good mood today as it was raining on and off. This no doubt impacted on the number of entrants. I did toy with the putting one of my bikes or cars in, but the forecast was rubbish, so I thought better of it.
However a BIG well done to the owners of these two Honda's and a Matchless who braved the elements and I thought them very worthy of inclusion here.

Sadly I forgot to take a picture of the front of the little Honda SS50, it looked like a anti dive mechanism. From the side the external damper looks like it connects to a link of some sort

It looks like a suspension measurement device as used on some race bikes. A bit of overkill on the little jaffa cake. 😄

It must sound well noisy with what looks like no silencer fitted.

Nice to get some pleasant autumn weather. This has not been a good year up in the north of the country. Lot of dry weather but seemed to be a lot of wind. Hopefully get an Indian summer yet.😜
