Stafford Bike show today.
Went to the show today on the hunt for some baragins. There were more jap bikes and spares than I expected seeing as it was a classic bike show.
I brought engine oils £25 cheaper than in the shop. Some fuel tank filter gauze to repair mine £3 a sheet.
£60 for a gold chain and link.
Fork oil. £3.50 for 1ltr.
Oh and a £200 Beowulf can and link pipe with removable d killer - ahem cough cough, stole it for £99 actually from the Beowulf stand all boxed.
The vintage trails bike course was amazing. Those old boys sure can throw a bike round.
Agostini gave a good talk.
Oh and spotted a few nice beauts for sale................



Surely this isn't correct. £15000???


Great day out for a tenner.

The Carole Nash international Jap bike show? Wrong! 5% Jap bikes 95% the rest!hunter wrote:Well it is the Japanese classic bike show.
The old man restores British bikes. WTF would he go to a Jap show then?
Do your research!

Re: Stafford Bike show today.
This weekend is the british show mainly, the one in october is the jap one.
Still some good bits there today, i was amazed at some of the prices of the 250's that were being sold, 6k for a RGV SP that wasnt that clever tbf. Some stunning british bikes aswell, as well as Rossi's championship RSW250 and Harada's RSW500.
Highlight for me was buying a lower panel for the rvf400 with all the lugs in tact for a tenner, only needs painting :)

Re: Stafford Bike show today.
Normally go to both of these and skipped it today for the first time in around 6 years.
15k for a RC30 is about the norm. Not followed them much have you ? they were around 7k back in 2000 for the same bike

Re: Stafford Bike show today.
Errm considering I've only had an Honda for around 10 weeks and have had other makes for 22 years I'd say there is a good change I have not followed the prices of RC30's hence the question mark at the end of my original 'is this right' quote!CRM wrote:Normally go to both of these and skipped it today for the first time in around 6 years.

I suppose there are a few of us out there that are not anal enough to know the prices of all bikes and have a life away from 2 wheels now and again.
I fucking hate these 'know-alls' aready.
Time to quit!
