Hoy Scalyback, Thats a picture of my Super meteor you put on, It's not maroon its polychromatic maroon.

Dennis I see you still have the factory center stand, can I ask how the hell you get it up on the stand, they might have been ok when we were 20 but these days near impossible

Hi Barnes,



Well, if you are going to leave these gorgeous pictures lying carelessly around the internet, it's not surprising that somebody might borrow them!

P.S. That is your bike? One of my favorite pictures!

[Scalyback]

Hi Dennis C,



It's your Super Meteor too? Or did I read Barnes incorrectly?




Anyway, same goes. It's a beautiful picture, and brings pleasure to RE enthusiasts who see it.



Right, who is going to claim the brown (polychromatic brown?) one then???

[Barnes]

Ha. No its not mine although it is very similar. Mine has the larger petrol tank fitted and i am also running extended front forks off a sidecar outfit. But the resemblence from afar is uncanny. Ed

Hi Norm, yes a few years past twenty now I mostly use the side stand. Scalyback yes definitely mine, I restored it from rust about five years ago, the colour is Ford pepper Red mica.

[Dennis C]

If this works you should see a picture of the other side of the bike and a before picture or two.

[Scalyback]

That is just breathtaking Dennis.



If it were mine, I would be tempted to leave a couple of prayer mats in front of it, and wait to see what happens!



Just had to look again, it's too much! Oh to been seen out riding on that beauty!

Sorry I didn't say did I , the frame is staying black, so the casket, tank and, tool Boxes and mudguards. If anyone knows of a bike painted in gold on the Internet please leave me the link, cheers.
