Do you still have the original GP carb? I guess the Mikuni is more practical though. Sounds like you are running the original RRT2 box with the high 1st gear. I can remember a guy trying to bump start one of these in 1963 in the main street of Newquay in Cornwall where I lived, I don't know if he started it because I lost sight of him! These were the bikes we all aspired to but they were bloody expensive.
Nice one Anth! I assume that was the choke you were adjusting, has she got manual advance & retard too? Also, is that a Davida face mask? Mine doesn't fit very well, perhaps it's my big nose!! Thanks again, fantastic sound, love it!
That's the advance/retard I'm adjusting, really important as these fire at 40 degrees before top so give you a hell of a kick if you don't retard them. It's a Davida helmet and mask - it's like a little leather jacket for your face :-) Anth.
That's what i love about old classic's you have to ride them. New bike's are flick of the button and off. But do have their use's :-) Car'nt beat the sound of a Goldie Though
I wasn't very pleased with the Goldie when it broke my ankle!! I like all bikes from my ES2 to the RSV, they've all got their place :-) Cheeers, Anth.
I am putting a VM34 on a DBD34....what jet/needle/slide did you use if you dont mind telling..and what size VM is on yours??

A side stand on a Goldie, I must lie down !
Funny carb and the black taped headlight !
I'm going to faint !
But sounds so very nice and is so atmospheric !!!!

Erotic presentation. Do you folks "Story Board" your clips beforehand or are they thought out entirely during the editing process?

All the shots are worked out first... makes the editing a lot easier, but... still took 7 hours to make this vid :-) Cheeers, Anth.
