New series of the Motorbike show started last night, Henry is still a dick but he bought an incomplete and messed about 1981 Moto Martin GSX1100 for £9.7k and will do a full restoration on it over the next few weeks. It will be interesting to see what he does with the bike.
neve heard of this show?
Nor do I know who Henry is.

best keep it that way - he is a twat :bugga:
Henry is Henry Cole, the only bloke who can make motorbikes seem more boring than football.
I watched a couple of his greatest motorbike rides the other year, he carefully planned them to miss every single good road in the areas he rode.
Glad ive never heard of him, will keep it that way.
He's a dick but occasionally funny.
He's the old guy doing motorbikes on tv Tuesday's.
I'd love the moto martin and put the gsx1400 motor in it .
:cheers:

I'm not sure it would fit Seth, if you saw the show the 1100 motor was a tight fit. Would make a very impressive bike though.
@mjgt I think you might be right but I'm sure I could make it all work.
It wouldn't be far away so some fettling might be needed .
Last show for this series last night, Moto Martin finished so Henry and his mates took it for a ride to get it valued. Henry was riding his newly built Moto Martin GSX1100, his very best mate was riding one of his own creations, a modified Honda CB1100, Allan Millyard turned up on his home made six cylinder Kawasaki Z1 and Sam Lovegrove rode a new GSXR1000. They met a chap from Bonham's who told Henry his Bike (That Cost him over £21,000) was worth about £16,500.
If they had put all the keys in a pot and I was told to choose the one I wanted I'm afraid to say poor old Allan Millyard would be walking home, his bike was stunning.
