I would love that! Unfortunately I never took my test and have not ridden a bike since the South of France in 1981! At my age I suspect I'd be asking for trouble. I'll have to stick with 4 wheels unfortunately. Good luck with the sale or swap, it's a great looking machine 👌

Weather great and a good selection of cars.

I believe this car will be known to many of you in the group. I’m selling as the car is just not getting used, I was doing a few track days with my son who’s now left home, and I’ve downsized and need the garage space for an upcoming house renovation. It flew through the MOT recently, no advisories. I bought the car in April 2023 when the mileage was around 28.5 and it’s now just over 30 (shows how little use it’s getting…). I’ve done some sunshine road driving and a few track days. I haven’t driven lots of different cars on track to be able to compare, but I can verify that this car is beautifully set-up and lots of fun. Looks and drives like a track car but the suspension is adjustable and is as much at home on the road as on the track. Wife even comes out with the dog on her lap. Always garaged, it’s been well looked after, frequent oil changes and a recent gearbox oil change. Not been on rolling road but estimated 210bhp. Weighs approx. 575kg. Reconditioned engine, new crankshaft, cam upgrade, swirl pot (to prevent fuel starvation when cornering on track), brake bias valve, some head work to help with air flow, oil cooler kit, Raceline sump, Simpson race can and manifold (huge can, but quiet), Playskool full cage with welded in side bars, JK fibreglass seats with pads and carbon fibre inserts including bases on runners, Carbon mods aero screen, carbon fibre front cycle wings, Willwood front brake callipers and drilled / grooved disks, quick release steering wheel, three sets of wheels - Minilite type replicas with 888's, a nice set of Compomotive CRX wheels with tyres which look to be about road legal but plenty left for track days, and a crappy set of Alleycats with some very and I mean very old Nankang tyres on - the wheels are rough and the tyres need destroying unless you are doing a drift day, V8 bonnet fitted to car, spare standard bonnet , carbon fibre dash , viscous slippy diff, gel battery (fitted in the nosecone), ingenious towing modification, curved rear view mirror on cage, SPA mirrors (central and side), lowered floor (fine for 6”2’), carbon fibre side screens, Procomp adjustable shocks/springs and front anti roll bar (not the Westfield one that has been known to damage the chassis), spare windscreen, side screens, wiper motor and washer bottle, Racelidz 4 point harness (they are five point but only 4 fitted but the groin belts to include in sale - seats have the holes for the 5th belt), high level cage mounted brake light. Car fully setup and corner weighted by Procomp. I can’t take any credit for the above and the fabulous set-up of this car. That was all the previous owner – more info here:- https://forum.wscc.co.uk/forum/topic/144169-chrome-yellow-sport-2000-car-sold/#comment-1527438 Car is in East Sussex TN32 5QS. I can take you for a spin. You can drive if you show me insurance. £14,500

I know this post was over a year ago!!..........Not the first time the Glenelg ferry has been mobbed by Westfields!! (This was back in 2016)

Gorgeous morning. Off soon, just need to pop my cricket whites on. See you soon.

Many thanks Andy I will sort some photos and more details 👍😀 much appreciated, cheers Hugh

Thanks for getting back to me Marka much appreciated, cheers Hugh

Thanks Stuart. It compounds my confusion as the original colour of 'The Prisoner' S2 has always seemed much darker than mine. At least we got the nosecone right, that's original Lotus LO7.😗

Thats not good news.. glad you did not do more damage to yourself or your bike... hope you are back on track soon...

Oohhh what else can we blame on you !!!!! 🤪

Not able to make this one, hope it stays dry for you Andy

My hill start was better though @aeg🤣

I would suggest that you post up photos and or any links to adverts for the sale of your guzzy! Andy

Look forward to it as always Andy

Go for it! 👍

Feeling risky, this event is ON, fingers crossed for the weather. if it rains now you can blame me 🤣🫣😘

Sorry Hugh, not really interested in that! 😄👍

A no from me, I'm afraid, Though hopefully might be able to get some work done on the car in the morning instead.

@Hugh Tranter Hope you can make it? I can't sadly, as I'm double booked.

Glad to hear you're ok .. I don't know if it's an age thing but I find I have more fun on my gravel bike than my road bikes these days ...

I’m new here so hello from Staffordshire. I am selling a 2022 Moto Guzzi 850 v7 stone to fund or part fund a Westie, it is black in colour so a disappointment to Flying Carrot Steve 😂 It is in very good condition and is always garaged, it has done less than 2000 miles from new and when I bought it less than a year ago I immediately fitted the best tyres possible ( Bridgestone battlax B46 ) and German made Hepco and Becker engine protection bars. I have two other bikes so I have only done a few hundred miles since buying it. It has 65 bhp but it’s party trick is its arm wrenching torque, the 850 V twin pulls like the proverbial train and always gets attention when parked up or fuelling, and the shaft drive is a real benefit. Although I don’t use it enough , it’s a beautiful bike that I’m very fond of and wouldn’t normally consider selling but I have caught a Westie infection 😂 which necessitates a potential sale. if anyone is interested please let me know, cheers Hugh

It could be arranged 😂😂😂

Yorkshire area meeting this Tuesday, 2nd September at The Buffers, Rakehill Road, Scholes, LS15 4AL from 7:30ish. Sorry for the late post.

I am ok. Nothing broken (including my bike, not sure how), I’m extremely black and blue though. Hit a concrete lined ditch at 35mph plus. Had there been a car coming the other way I think the outcome would’ve been very different. Haha, on this occasion I think you’ll find he copied me! 🤪

Hope you're not too badly hurt mate? Were you trying to copy Chris Froome? 😬
