Sunday run to Dollar

They say you should never go back, but took a wee run down to
where my roots are in the foothills of the Ochils.
Where we had our wedding photos this time in 1978. The NF was
only 6 years old...

Where I lived in 1972 when the Guzzi was being made:

And what I was riding back then (made also in 1972) whilst I
made a good impression of a big lassie... ;D

Don't be modest Jake - you were kinda cute ;)
I hadn't noticed before that you don't have crash bars. A
search for lightness - or just pitted chrome?

Don't like them Nick, and they're pretty fugly with the lugs on
them for the legshields. Lugly maybe?
I have actually recently acquired Tony's bar, which has been
de-lugged and rechromed to a high standard. Consequently it is
far too pretty for my NF, and will be sold!
