Wow! You are very well prepared, but you are not told what it says to me!

You ask Graeme, he knows the Japanese! :lol: :lol: :lol:


What an immense pleasure to have you as friends!


Ciao Da Firenze. Carlo.


I have enough trouble with english!!!!
And I can't copy and past the Japanese writing to google translator so I have no hope of understanding any of that.

I know how you feel Graeme. Mike I agree with you on the 16 inch wheels they do look 80's. I love those period Japanese books or magazines. The photos are fantastic! I have a few and when I learn how to scan them I will try and post some pictures. Here is a photo of the poster of the Adamo TT. Lou

Hey Lou, I had that photo copy-written! I have kept quiet watching those who knew this rider and bike better than me make their comments. This is great, but now I have get to another TT symposium so I can see the new member of your changing (and improving) collection. MikeV

PS: Is that Pantah/Alazurra special too, or is that a "doner". I see a decent looking muffler on it.

Visiting an old post, but it does take time to get these things going. After 28 years the 16 inch EPM's are back on the Adamo bike. They really bring back the 80's! Toughest part to find was the bias ply tires. I fell in love with this bike all over again! Lou

Lou, under the engine, is that your lead shot bag you used to form a guard bracket?
It's a MULTI use item if it is. What is its correct name if I was going to try and buy one?
Graeme

Hi Graeme, yes I feel the same way, it is multi purpose. I like to throw it on the bike jack because it forms to the shape of the bottom of the motor, and is leather so it doesn't mar the paint or cases. I also use it when I make an indentation on a TT megaphone. It holds it in place, doesn't mar the surface, and holds odd shaped items really well. You can usually find these 'shot bags' from many of the sheet metal tool supply places. I prefer the large round heavy leather type, but people use canvas bags with sand or the like. This bag has an opening with velcro and you can fill it with lead buckshot like you use to re-load shot gun shells. It has lasted twenty years of being abused. Lou
