Decided to give the Salisbury do another try this year, having given last year's a miss as it had all been getting a little bit samey, as of late. The usual mix of the good, the bad and the downright ludicrous, posturing back-patchers and bearded ol' duffers. One creation caught my eye, though....   A B40 motor, I believe. (Adam will verify this - hopefully) Five Buells present - X1, S1, S2, XB12s and a Uly. |

Its a B series engine but not a B40, the B40 was a unit engine and thats Pre-unit, without seeing it it looks like a B31 or a B33, 350 or 500, but they had a Iron barrel and that looks Alloy, ( or could be paint ) which would make it a early Gold star, Either a BB or a Zb engine depending on age. |

Ade and I rode over there...must have got there about 2.00 - 2.30... a lot of people were leaving, and we only stayed half an hour ourselves. I didn't see anyone I knew. As we were leaving, another Buell pulled up alongside me, said something or other, gave the thumbs up and rode off. Unfortunately I am not sure who they were and whether they are a UKBEG member or not. Had a distinctive helmet which had a skull jawline pattern on it. Anyone here?? |

(not talking about exhausts, here) Saw someone come in on a more-or-less standard red X1, but didn't manage to see it parked up: One remarkedly cleaner than usual white X1 with a pornographic points cover: One or two XB's: A really beautiful Indian. Two incredibly shiny Black Strikes - one was Mev's which won a prize  Loads of blokes with patches, ladies with exposed cleavages (summer's here  ) and beards longer than Toyboy's. (the men - not the laidies with exposed cleavages)

Red Stripe X1 was mine, parked up on the left as you "motored" in... good turn out of Buells and a winner in the process... well done! Psycho. |

I was directed towards the overflow car park, but managed to squeeze in on the grass verge at the front. That's where I was stood when said X1 turned up. |
