Mansfield newby

Post by Bones » Mon Mar 12, 2018 12:26 am

Hello everyone. I'm obviously new on here but hope to be a big part of the club. I just got my 1st cub 90 that's now stripped and I will be spraying that tomorrow in my garage in 2k. I have about 7 other big bike 916 blade r1 etc but really looking forward to some 90 fun. I'm part of a race team that enter the TT each year so the cub will be my paddock bike this year all being well.

You will be in good company.

James Hillier, Bruce Anstey and a fair few other TT names have Cubs as their paddock bikes. 8-)

Are you actually in Mansfield? No location in the profile so as I am I just thought I'd ask...... I too am restoring a C90, a very early one, completely different to the majority of them. There's a write-up progressing in the projects section......

I'm just off Skegby Lane, on the Ladybrook, in Harworth Close, so only just (by about 100yds) in Mansfield proper.

I also raced bikes (1969 - 1985). Too old nowadays but good memories....
