Southend Shakedown ( loads of photo's )
Posted: Mon Apr 01, 2013 12:58 pm
So at last the day of the Southend shakedown is here........ and it's bloody freezing ( 37f )
I was a bit worried about the :cold: because as I don't usually ride in the winter I don't really have any warm gear, but with a pair of trackpants under my kevlar jeans, a nice warm sweater under my jacket, two pairs of socks and a scarf around my neck I was all set. It was OK to be honest, only my hands suffered really, as I only have summer gloves
First a quick ride up and down, before parking

Despite the cold it was a great turn out, and loads of great bikes where on show
There is thousands of sport bikes
Drapheus here's one for you ( to get insperation for your model )
There were some Trikes
the paint job on this one was AMAZING !!
"V-Max" Trike anyone !
Does this even count ?
There were some old Brits
James 2 stroke
Streetfighters
this one was very nice, think it's a Z 1000
Old Skool 2 strokes some of my personal favorites
very "trick" RD/RZ 350 LC with USD forks and a Banana swing arm
Heavily modified RG 500 Gamma
you may laugh at this "pink" bike, but this Aprilia RS 125 is capable of well over 100mph ( unrestricted )
And there are alway's Harley's some of them are also "pink"
This one was gorgeous
Look out the "sheriff" is in Town
Even the scooter boy's turned out We are the Mod's.. we are the Mod's... we are, we are................
And the best of the rest
Lovely Goldwing
KTM LC4 640 supermoto
A brace of XJR 1300's
An Ural, going on a teddy bears picknick
I like the look of these, Yamaha MT03 - 660cc single

Triumph Rocket 3
Aprilia Tuono
Very smart CB 1300
And of course the obligatory XJ
or two
And so as not to leave the car fans out, a stunning looking Mustang
Well after all this walking about taking photo's I genuinly forgot where I parked my bike..... *PANIC*
Oh no THERE SHE IS :grins:
this was a great day out, that even the cold could not spoil
