They're the bike that got me into bikes, IYSWIM.

Always remember Steve Spray and Trevor Nation giving the Japs a good
kicking on them in the old British F1 bike series :-)

Fond sweet memories shared here too. Must confess that my members page
does show the Yam though <ROF>
Brit bikes, well, they are a bit like my health, a thing of the past <LOL>

What about the Triumph Daytona? My mate's got one and it's great. However,
Triumph could be owned by Suzuki for all I know about bikes.

The reasons for loving my alfa is for two reasons.

1. Standing outside the office and a having a fag and meeting a fellow Alfa
driver say "I didn't know you were an Alfa man" . Thats never going to
happen to a bmw driver in a million years.

2. Giving a lift home to 4 girls who can't find the rear door catch on a
156. Oh the smile inside. And if they are turned on by speed, even better. I
have to say it's not the speed or the handling good as it is WOW. It's the
design!!!!

156 TS 1.8
