Also it's official, the collective noun for a group of SFCs is a 'gaggle' :-

My bike appears a couple of times, but for the life of me I can't remember where the photos could have been taken - it is just at a roadside somewhere. Photo must have been taken by a passing stranger. Funny old thing this WWW.

no ducatis - interesting!

i like the lav, the guzzis and the morini and the mv ain't bad either!

they certainly got the bmw right, too. it isn't called a boxer for nothing and the ugliness level is spot on!

Conrad,

Like 'em. But surely, since Lego is made of plastic, why didn't they make models of Japanese bikes??? 

On another note - try this:

Just make sure your popup blocker is turned on. The slideshow is pretty annoying if you have it off for some reason.

If you look at the pictures, of Oro's place, the one of him standing behind the counter, you will see behind him a clock
I gave it to him, it says "FROM CLEM" on the face, the freeky thing is this, I gave it to him when he was in his earlier smaller shop, and when we visited the new shop in July 09, as I walked up to the counter, a lady apeared from behind me and was carrying the clock, she hung it up in front of me, and no she had no idea that it was I, who gave it to Ricardo 9 years earlier.I later told Ricardo about this and he actaully smiled! I was not quick enough to get it on camera, I was told by a Danish friend that he had also seen him smile in 1976, but I am not sure if he wasnt exagerating
CLEM

Clem, he sounds like a real character
