Title: The Stuff You Find Backed Up on Your Hard Drive...
Post by: ruSTynutz on January 30, 2023, 12:04:04 PM

I was browsing some of the saved stuff on some old hard drives this morning and came across this commercial for the Honda ST1300...

Obviously even back then (2004) I wanted an ST1300!  :grin

I'm scared to look at some of my old external drives.. They are so big, but yet so small..

I've just spent a couple of hours looking at dozens & dozens of road safety related pdf's from probably the last 20 or so years...I think my brain is about to explode!!!   :fp  :||||

You probably should otherwise you just never know what "incriminating evidence" that someone else may find sometime down the track...  :whistle

Mine would be u-turning where I shouldn't or illegally parking.  I'm sure they've all passed the statute of limitations.

Hi aussiegaz, I just tried it myself and it worked for me!
Just be aware you actually have to download it as "preview" is unavailable...  :think1

I was yet again having a browse through an old hard drive and came across this "classic" ad from eBay that I'd saved...  :grin

I loved the "description"...

Hopefully you can all read it...  :X

That is a tale... He should have called off the wedding the first time she 'suggested' that he sell the bike.

I'm glad my wife encourages my motorcycling, even when she is jealous that she can't ride any more.

I always said I'd get rid of my wife before I got rid of my bike...and that was the case with the first wife!  :whistle

Thankfully wife number 2 (Sue) fully supports my riding and was instrumental in me buying the ST...  :thumbs
