Has Anyone Seen My Sadly Missed Bike?

bloody hell, kid in a bucket

 

err,, I think technically there are 9 on there

 

We got 15 up on a DT50 when we were young and stupid, it wasn't my DT50 mind, I would have been happy with one girl on it!!

 

IOW 84,twas a good year,34mm dellorto power jet and MK2 mikec.

 

was that yours simmy

 

Built by myself,won a few custom shows with it(the tall one was the iow 84) ,was featured in scootermania.I built this one a few of years ago for a mate,he finished it off.

 

well i was never that into cut downs, but yours was my favorite , heres the pic i took of it over the IOW to prove it, small world lol, just a great looking scoot, nice L plate, heres a pic of my GP225 sporting the L plate on front fork : )

 

built this one in late 80s, TSI240, was in scootering mag and won a few trophy's in its day

 

Thats weird,i reckon thats 86 the year of the riots,i was always into cutdowns and choppers back then,do you remember this creation of mine.I love the full frame gps always had a soft spot for the metalflake af 250 style.Have you seen thesememory lane www.scooter-rallies.com 1980's photo gallery

 

looks familiar, will check out that site, theres one on facebook " scooter rallies in 1980s Britain" 11,000 members lol, great site for old photos, put loads of mine on there, love seeing the old photos

 

is it true that you scooter boys used to pump it in to each other at these meets?

 

I knew a few people on those pics. I was in the A21animals. I remember your gp Kev.

 

I was also in the olympia sc. Shame scootering was before digital cameras. Me on my old AF pulling a face. Note this is in my front room on the 10th floor of a 22 storey tower block in woolwich. Mickech...which always blew its baffles out. Once onto my mates shin and taking a lump of it with it. That was funny.

 

i remember them clubs, apart from the rallies, used to do a lot round hampshire,surrey and berkshire etc in them days,with the local clubs, most clubs in the south new each other, i used to knock round with the southampton & newbury clubs and & salisbury & portsmouth now and again, ive got loads of photos, like you say, quality wasnt the best in them days for pictures, first one, brighton 82/83 ( me in jean jacket), 2nd torquay 83/84 , and remember ian brown from the Stone Roses ; ) him at the iow rally

 

Scooter scum.

Matt! The banstick, if you please!

 

ah hum, Ex but always a soft spot for them,good times, you had to be their, nowadays couldnt be with my ducatis & MV

 

Yeah, if you werent a scooterist, you didnt 'get it'. I reckon Loz was a casual or a grebo.

 

I was a greasy rocker.
I know this to be true because I used to drink in The Swan in Chichester and I wore double-denims

 

Hopefully the Midhurst SC gave you a beating
