Hello

Just bought a carb Plus 8 that I will pick mid November in Melvyn woohoo
After 6 months of selection, those last days make me crazy, I don't sleep, cannot concentrate at work, don't listen to children, and begin to pist Mme who continue to give an even longuer "to do list" of the saturday morning coffee
So just floating, it is just the best and worth time. waiting
Thanks for educating me on mogs along those hours of reading on the forum. I became less idiot, but more work still

my garage looks like JZR Guzzi, R1200C, Bullet 500 Trial, and 10x50cc vintage various

This is normal, don't panic. sos

Once you drive the car all will be replaced by a big grin, joy everyone will ask you "why are you so happy", but you will not be able to answer because the grin will not go away. crazy2

I have had mine for 7 years this month. happy3

Welcome Pel........savour the next couple of weeks of excitement; nothing quite beats the lack of sleep, rising anticipation etc...until that final day when you pay Melvyn and jump into the car to fire her up for the trip home! Have fun!!!!

That sounds like a 'magic' garage!
Always fancied one of those Enfield Bullet 'Trials' variants...

Look forward to the camera once you get the +8 home thumbs

Ah, and WELCOME to TM! wine

Graham,
ditto on the Enfield trials. I bought a bog standard 350 one when I was in Kenya in 94. It was great for those "roads". It was Indian spec though so 6 v electrics, no air filter & a weak silencer. This meant it was faster than the strangled ones sold in Europe.

Though I am not sure how good the new leanburn ones are. But I don't like the styling of them.
John
