Were you about to do a slalom through the rocks?
Here's a pic of mine a few of weeks back after an afternoon in the Peak district. I forgot to take my 'phone with me - DUH!

What a nice idea for the lengthening nights Doggy... I'll bung a couple up.
I'm intrigued by the glimpse of what looks like a late bevel twin Ducati in your first shot. What is it and please and have you got any full pictures of it?

Laverda would be my guess. Rear light and pipes are the same as on mine.

Ah! Never thought of Laverda. My next guess was going to be Allazura or somfink.

Maybe too modern, a lot of other Italian bikes from the '70's used that rear CEV light unit, Morini, Guzzi, Benelli etc. But they look suspiciously like Laverda Jota pipes.

Could be a Morini with after market silencers, but can't be a Guzzi cos it's got a sprokit innit...

Yea and it looks like it's on the wrong side which makes me think Laverda, chain on the right on those. Any others have chains on the right?

Ducati all had the drive on the right, up until the belt driven camshaft models commencing with the Pantah.
Morini wee vees also have right hand drive... And a left hand kick start! (left foot) Moto Guzzi singles had a right hand chain too, but before the era of the bike in the picture.
