So, it turns out, that if you ride a vintage bike, your age may not be an issue, insurance wise. (just quoting a friend who has a Francis Barnett) The worlds gone mad.:)

I worked at the, then, Public Works Department, (the council) in Curzon St. Starting in 1967. Next door to the depot was the "banana yard" an old store yard literally for bananas, a long time before it was taken over by the council, as a store place. About that time was a pub called, The...

My fault, sorry

No tariffs on age then Dave:innocent:

Jeez, Quads are really safe...."no one want you when you're old and grey"

My sisters were Villa fans, all three of them, and my dad was a blues fan. One week I'd go to the blues, and the next week to the Villa. My sisters used to buy me a badge, a claret, star shaped badge with the photo of a villa player (obviously). At the time I had Gerry Hitchens, Peter McParland...

Stirling work Mods:)

I'm with Bennetts, so I rang them, they said if you're already a customer of theirs, they dont have an age limit. I asked him twice, he said " as long as you stay with us, even , at my age 73, we'll keep insuring you". Basically, its good for them, and a 73 yr old is hardly going to get his leg...

Edit: Posts moved from another thread as this is a general discussion issue Slightly off topic, sorry, but an 85yr old friend of mine was refused insurance for his Kwaka 650, anyone else heard of this?

I've had the odd stimulant in my life, but not any, as good, as being on a bike, any bike

I get that Richard, it is what it is, as the yanks say. I've had fast bikes, and cruisers and all sorts, but I keep going back, to ,as you say, the look. Then there's the smell of the bike shop, but thats another thread:D

Try this then:innocent:

F Worley, in boldmere. Bought my first Honda Superdream from there , in the early 70s. What a bike that was, absolutely indestructible, regardless of the poor press they got from people who owned crotch rockets. Had to sell it, when times were hard, and kids were about:(:sob:

Oops......"should do better" should be my epitaph:innocent:

Soooo true;)

The later day recyclers, we could do with them now, save loads in fly tipping:innocent:

16 pages long now, I'm sure someone must have been to Saleems, in Ladypool Rd, or Jaaneman, also Ladypool Rd. Proper good curry houses.....Saleem was a Pakistani, I say that, only in passing, and, he was a really nice bloke. Jaaneman had Barfi to die for. This was the 70s though, sorry just...

I'm a roe and chips man meself;)

Good man for trying to make it look right, regardless of how he died. I offered my services at tidying up the graves at the local church, they said they'd rather have the wild life. I think an untidy graveyard, is having no regard for those therein. Times change I Know, when I first moved here...
