Sorry mate caught me between Christmas and a holiday booked over easter – so limited spare pennys.
I may know someone who is looking for a set of carbs though?

The Enfield was called a Robin
https://www.f2motorcycles.ltd.uk/restoration.html
I started off as a young engineer working for Lucas Diesel and as well as the racing trucks they had a Robin in the R&D building. I rode it once. It had all the go of a CX500 with a plug lead missing towing a caravan and sounded like a cement mixer. Thanks for reminding me of that Radar!
There is a diesel sports bike with a VW lupo engine that looks and probably goes better then the Robin.

I don’t know about you but I ride a bike as a cure for the diesel car I drive all week!

I’ve seen a bloke a couple of times on the M4 near junction 13 on an offroad trike, complete with balloon tyres and thermos flask bungeed to the rack.

Where does all the rubber go?
Millions of vehicles on the road. All tyres wear on the road’s surface,even the Chieng Shein [spelt wrong] cheap ones that I had on my RD125DX [see Radar even I had a Yam]. So why aren’t all the roads covered with a thick layer of rubber?

What was named after what – Orange
Are Oranges named because of the colour or is the colour named after the fruit? If the colour was named from the fruit then what colour were carrots before they were orange, as carrots must have been about in the colder parts of the world before anyone who lived there saw an Orange?
If the friut was named after the colour by some explorer bod asking, “what are those orange things on that tree” why aren’t bananas called yellows, strawberrys reds, peas greens etc?
