If he was a real legend he would have jumped that with a trailer attached. I think we'd all pay to see that!

Marcel’s next botm submission:

I went with my mate today as he is after another bike. Specifically a Yamaha XS 650 US Custom. First one we looked at was dog rough and pissing oil, for £2.5k. Not the right one. The second one was a much better prospect only 16,000 miles really tidy original Damerells bike owned by a retired Damerells mechanic. That was spot on but £4k. If it was my money that would have been the one but my mate was undecided. The same chap also had a XS1100 with 300 miles on it. An XS750, an XS1-B and a 1981 DT175. All immaculate and for sale from his own collection. Wish I could have got some photos to show but the chap wasn’t keen to have them shared around so I respected his wishes. Anyway after that we headed to Damerells for a cuppa and sandwich. I got chatting to a chap who has just ordered a new Yellow Hornet today for August delivery. Anyway Damerells was low on stock but it is silly season. The line of sold bikes was long. Saw a nice Harris Yamaha outside Damerells, believe it had a R1 motor but not entirely sure. I have also come to the conclusion that Damerells is a sort of day care centre for silly old fuckers with too much time on their hands And before anyone says I do resemble that remark and my mate is 8 years my senior

Been assembling this today. Although I seem to put some parts on and then take them off again to get a pipe or bolt in.

......and Bibles! With no women! Just this......

Seems like we've got the boys for an hour or two this afternoon......because Fatty wants to clean! Fatty saying she's going to clean up is like me saying I'm going to service my bike!

I saw the light after so many years...I'm a convert now ...I have to say looking more and more at your top box it fits the bike nicely...

So the moral of the story is that real smarter man ride Hondas....what do say Buck ?

I got some saddle time on monday, Rode down to St Pourcain sur Sioule ( between Moulins and Clermont ferrand). 435km round trip in 7 hours ( 5 hrs riding) bike running great after a half days fettling sunday, greasing the brake discs, tensioning the handlebars, topping up the blinker fluid and all that...

Seem to have plenty for sale still. Wasn't the XS750 a bugga for knocking out second gear????? Must admit the little DT would get my attention. Cheers Saul.

Same here!

I should get it for banning the Gammon from BOTM

A trailer full of butt plugs..?

Absolutely.

There aren’t many toys made after his son, though.

Or... don't run out of talent when you ogling 3 Indian women.... need I say any more?

Oh definitely...this is the Cadillac of harleys...Buck has a girl bike...

We had this behemoth in today, when you’re sat on it the tank is almost as wide as the handlebars

Yeah that cam chains and transfer cases. I liked the XS1-B. 1973 I think. But if I was going to buy something from that era probably be a big 2 stroke. Maybe a T500 or the like. All dream land I have no intention of going down that black hole.

Yes it is. We are going to Bude bike night tomorrow and he is actually going to ride his Indian Scout. I have never seen the thing move and I have known him years.

As I've got older I've found that washing bikes is a lot harder than it used to be!

Nice shots Saul. Is this the same guy who buys bikes and then never rides them? Him and @Slowlycatchymonkey sound like soul mates to me! What you say @Six30?

if he gets rid of his tractor he'll get my vote...... and my faith in mankind will be restored.

I can see @Marcel getting MOTY back this year!

Your knew boyfriend will prefer the Honda.

I knew you had more sense … we understand that you must of just had a moment … now get rid .. sharpish

Reject the Buck lifestyle.......you can see where it will end up!

Now you need to ditch that sad Harley......or people will think you're a Buck wannabe!

You aren’t supposed to lick them off.

The XR was quite fast for the time, though. It was a part of his act, can’t match the stars and stripes with a Honda quite the same way can you?

He's no where cool ,fresh or crisp enough to have a van...

is it a gt 185 ?

I totally agree with that, either that or I’m riding through more shit

What was hot stuff motorcycling 50 years ago would now feel agricultural.

For sale 21,000. Can Or 30,000 American.

yeh im sure...

Yes i was knackered after myself, i tend to wash bikes because that's the easiest way to find things that need fixing, them getting clean is just a side effect of looking for faults LOL

Enough said really

Abandoned windmill, first built in 1918, then rebuilt in early 2000s, now like this

I hope everyone enjoyed BOTM, most of you will be able to enter again next month.

Bang on Saul

I know it's real but nobody cares though, apart from royalists who can swear if they want. Certainly not headline material to my mind, just the gutter press sewing division between those that will and the those that "Hate Britain" and won't as always. I think they are evil and manipulative in the games they play. Rant over

its just more, anti English , from @XTreme, the welsh dont like the English cause we are better at them at every thing .
