    Hi everyone, Newby here from Radelaide. I have owned my 1970 Shovel for about 6 years and way too much money but I can't bring myself to part with it

    Thought I would add some Pics of the old girl doin what she seems to love best

     

    She only ever starts 1st kick when I tell her we are entering a Burnout Comp

     

    How she looked when I bought her (after a hell of a lot of polish)

     

    Looking a little run down after a couple of years of riding

     

    Some new Tanks

     

    A splash of Paint

     

    First run the day after Paint (still no front guard)

     

    Another little Burnout for good meassure

    I'm gettin married in just under 4 weeks, Once that is out of the way I have a bloke comin around to get the old girl runnin right again. I have twin plug heads on her but have never had the Ignition system for it so we are going to set that up and hopefully get it set right so she kicks over easier.

    A word from the wise shaggz....

    If she aint runnin right and is hard to start dont marry her...

    Hang on wrong info....

    Just dont get married..... fix the bike quicker.... smiles will be bigger.

    Thanks for the welcomes fellas, I am really lookin forward to putting some time back into the Shovel and getting it back on the road. Only a few weeks now until the wedding is over so I can get stuck into it. The Rocket needs to go back into the shop for warranty work again so I am going to be rideless until I get that back unless I register one of the jappers for a while.
