The escutcheon plate around the key was missing from my Bianchi. Not a big deal really, but irritating, as you notice it every time you start it.

Thought I’d never find one, but an old headlight nacelle popped up on Fleabay recently and the escutcheon looked complete and in very good nick with the original red insert. I’m chuffed enough to post a couple of pictures91537915389153791538.

Heres my last one before it met its maker at Donington.

This is my last bike. It met its maker at Donington chasing lap time (mid 1'40's) and not on a warm down lap giving a thumbs up to the camera man.

Good to see. Kudos, it looks like you've nearly got your knee down. Skinny chicken strips for sure.

Good to see. Kudos. If I wasn't so old, I'd be right there with you.

CFA above.

BTW they are alien knee sliders, about 1/3 the size of the steps most wannabes wear. That left is fairly new, IIRC I was at the grinding the nose off stage.

if anyone can tell me who the airbrushed film characters are on both side panels I would be grateful as nobody knows.924479244692447

Left side . But I reckon the other one might be them too. First one definitely looks just like “Watson’s” hair
