@iveco321 I had a workmate who's dad was on set and it was a piddly TS that David used for his riding shots. Apparently David was insured up to 15 mph and then the stuntman took over....I reckon they could have used a Duke for some of the pics- as you rightly say arguably the best looking motorcycle marque....

@MrPomdownunder if i remember correctly it was a ducati pantah 500cc - i was 16 years old at the time and they had one in the ducati show room wolverhampton - i spent hours just standing there looking at it !

David is so cool ! I saw him in concert at Fairfield Hall and he hi 5'd me ! I haven't washed my hand since.....
Apparently the silver dream racer was only a TS125 under the plastic....

This song makes me want too go out and buy a fast motorcycle and race it...just without the 'crashing into a wall and bursting into flames' bit.

Typical toasted sandwiches are a grilled cheese sandwich...but as dr seanelius informed us there is literally thousands of combinations...

EXCUSE ME...Not many people know THIS...Most of David's songs started out food-related - his real name being Cook...No really, there's ..."Hold Me Toast"..."If I Cook"...."Gonna make you a jar" - about sharing his jam - Oh what a Circus was originally "Blow, it's hot on purpose" and of course the wonderful song "Fridgelight" And this whole film WAS going to be about David making sandwiches at high speed. But the producers said no. TRUE.
