I've built a few. I have a Honda Interceptor 700/750 (circa 1985) in the stockpile to match the one I ride.

Well, I like to ride them rather than to build them, I like to do some trail and ride some dirt bikes (mine is a Husqvarna WR250).
Cheers for all!

I build (well pay the cash! :-) ) for 1:1 scale lambretta restorations just got one on the road and another to this winter sadly no plastic/resin kits are aviable of these great machines are out there that I'm aware of sad really as these were exported everywere and looking at
which countries had them reads like a who's who of warfare for the last 1/2 of the 20th centuary love to see them in 1:35 but that's once chane=no chance
vist this link to see my ser2 lambretta under restoration

Wots this got to do with military modelling then?

I built the Protar Manx many years ago and it still survives but I am afraid that my full size Norton 650SS cafe racer and my BMW K75S satisfy my two wheel cravings and I stick to modelling things I cant own, like Ferraris.

Got a Revell Ducati and Protar Norton Commando on my shelf at the moment, but I've made most of Protars Brit-iron at some time - AJS, Matchless and Norton racers.

Mikeli125 - wots all this Lambretta stuff - we used to think those roundels on the mods parkas were targets - Rockers Rule the Road.
