minivin Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 While I'm scratting thru' pictures....Here is one of the carp in the back... nice, was going to restore my 109 FFR in the back as well, but after looking at the prices of all the amps, switches et cetera decided to keep it reasonably standard on the outside and change what I like on the inside for rallies, tours and motorcycle transportation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dino Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 Keef: Thanks for starting this thread again, it is a pitty that they could not get hold of the archives and save the original thread from LRE. Mike (4Mud) I was not going to post on here as I am considered by certain peeps as Petulant Funny that you say: I know, it's so long since you last used it, you can't remember where you parked it! I moved it just the other week, and went back to the undergound garage a few days later and it had moved all by itself, it was in a completely different space. Perhaps it needed some exercise and decided to go for a run on its own. True, honest. Well I did leave it unlocked as they were decorating the garage, I told them just to push it around as and when required, they suggested that I leave them the keys, I can not type my reply here. Sorry it is an old photo, must get some new ones done soon. just noticed that there is no moderator yet for the Mil section, I wonder should I apply.
