Cool! I always fancied an R65 when i was a schoolboy. Is the R45 as guttless as it's reputation would have you believe?

In a word, yes.  But it will cruise all day at 80 and the staggering lack of power translates to 20,000 miles on each rear tyre

Plan A was to stuff all the gear into a Vectra estate and haul the bike down on a trailer. Had to  revert to plan B of riding the bike down all the way as the tow car is now history.

I recently insured a 23 year old mini with Footman James, Full comp  Unlimited mileage ,UK & Continental breakdown included  £127.  If you are already insured the RAC is worth a look , older cars are catered for.
