May 20, 20204 yr Moderator Lovely big thumper, well done on not losing all of them. there is something about a big thumper, takes some skill to ride properly but I assume you are the wheelie mister.
May 20, 20204 yr Author No wheelies anymore unlike the 1980s haha. Kickstarting the 2NF is my exercise lock down excuse. Took half an hour after the stale fuel took a hold on the idle in the carb at alderley Park and it stalled at 50mph when I pulled the clutch in. BTW IT WON'T BUMPSTART IN 5TH AT 50MPH WHEN YOU LET THE CLUTCH OUT. I was dripping in sweat by the time I got it going again.

Pretty much the perfect anti theft as he was the only person that could start the bstd.
