An Oily Hello

01-02-2009, 03:57 PM

Hello, my name is Joel and i am in good old Great Yarmouth on the east coast.
Well after many frustraing months of bsa bantam driving, i have now had enough and bought a Ducati M750!!! havent got it yet, picking it up on saturday hopefully.
My bantamis now getting an engine strip down to find out why its not revving and stripping gallon of oil out the exhaust. Once i have rebuilt it will be for sale to fund my car and the m750 mods.

Looks like a very kool club and forum

Hi Oily - no idea what a Bantam is, nor where Ispwich is, nor why Yarmouth is Great but welcome all the same

OK I lied I do know what a BSA Bantam is and where Ipswich is (I used to work at Lowestoft) but still no idea why Yarmouth is Great

Welcome to the mad house

Helo from South Norfolk.

A bantam is a chicken right?

Hi Oilly, and welcome, hopefully we'll see you on one of the runs for fish and chips we sometimes do in the summer, to Southwold.
Do you go to the Swan on a fri night?

Stafford · 01-02-2009, 06:34 PM

If it's fish and chips get in quick before Grumpy eats it all.
Have fun with the 750, was that the one on ebay?
