Next door but 4 whose name I can never remember and who I've just had
to explain to that 'No Matt hasn't got rid of the ZX9 for a Pan'
(which shows how often we have a chat) has been poddling up and down
the close on an assortment of bikes this afternoon. I let the old kwak
go by, I had my fill at Chimay.

Then he came out on something that sounded lovely, all low and
grumbly. So off I went to have a look over a C reg RD350 that was as
new. His mate had restored it, had frame redone in red and it has
advertising plastics on it. Which weren't that effective as I can't
remember what for - wranglers?'.

It just looked *right* and sounded even better.

Yeh would be a wrangler paintjob, mainly white with some blue and yellow
striping. I tried to google a pic but couldn't find one.

Look like this but in different colours?

It looked more like a sports bike,

Also mine, or it was, sold it after rescuing it from a garden in London.
