Posted September 14, 200915 yr Hello everyone! Just joined the club having bought a 650 Dragstar after 45 years of wanting another bike!!!

September 15, 200915 yr Author I'll tell you what, bikes have changed a bit since my day! I used to go around marking my territory with little pools of oil (particularly when I had an Enfield!), not unlike the way dogs do when they cock their legs on every lamp post. I thought there was something wrong with this one, not a drop of oil leaks from anywhere ! I have heard that you don't even have to pay an extra penny now for a shot of Red X whenever you fill up, amazing!!!!
September 15, 200915 yr An Enfield, I'm itching to have a test ride on on 'o' these, a local trader has them, heard they haven't changed much from original even tho' they're made in 'ding-ding land' I think they're uprated from the 'total-loss' lubrication system of old
September 15, 200915 yr Author I believe they're very good these days if you want a steady plodder. Mine was a 500 Meteor Minor, God rest its' little soul
