    Looked like a good trip, Tony, and things seem a bit greener than they were in the last few videos. Nice of Ellie to polish the bike so well for you - I hope you didn't get it dirty!

      That blue cast is still there, not as much but I shall rectify that.

    Enjoyed seeing the bike up close. Looks in showroom condition. It must be rather rare in New Zealand and valuable. Don't drop it.

      As far as I can find it is the only one registered in NZ of this age . Goes well and quite quick, no speeding of course.....hope you are well and must try and catch up one of these years !!

    To be honest, some Conti pipe-mic instead of that shitty generic elevator-music would have vastly added to the clip. Half of the fun racing a Pantah is hearing her breathing - glorious times when Taglioni could concentrate on performance of the valvetrain insted of concentrating on sillily choking sounds and waste-air to unreasonable lows ...
    Anyway - very nice bike You got there. Thanks for sharing!

      I have attempted to record the Conti pipes but no luck as the wind noise is too loud but I am in the throes of experimenting with it. Yes the pipes are loud, quite loud as I wear earplugs to lessen it but in saying that it does alert the tintop drivers as to the presence of an un moto. Grazie T.

      @@astrokiteman1943 I thought so with the wind. Thanks for experimenting! I do wear earplugs with most of my motorcycles ever since i started 40+ years ago, the reason though is more the windnoises around the helmet (However I am living in Bavaria/Germany, so our average commuting speeds might be slightly higher than what You know as "criminally speeding"😅)
