DoyleForum etiquette prevents me from using bad language so i"ll just have to get my revenge by posting those shots i have of you on your fizzy before you got two points for speeding even though it would only do 30mph flat out.Or maybe mention the time you were calling up on your fzr600 on your way to the dealers to sell it and crashed it on the way.......what a mug
Enjoy the site Bren
Did n't know you could use a computer.
I think you will find i have more on you than you on me, especially all your calls asking me to check if there were any pics of you posted up.
And as you know my fizzy was much faster than yours.
PB think your shot is much better, any idea what year mine was as it will help me with the rest of my negatives.

Well my fizzy was faster than either because it was a Kawasaki GA2A and was a dark horse. No-one knew what it was so the Puch M50, Fantics, Guilietta Greyounds and the other mopeds were despatched with alarming ease after I waited outside the local school to race anyone for a laugh. I didn't have to pedal mine either I wonder where XDU 9J is now?

Thanks David and Sterling
Fortunatley i am a good four or five years younger than doyley, unfortunatley i was never half as good as him.
As for the fizzy thing there is actually a fizzy day at the Ace Cafe next Sunday, there expecting about 100 of them.
David there is a website you can use to try and track down your old bike, but it is down at the moment, i ll send you some detials when it is back up.

P.S. clubhouse bars at the end of a meeting were hilarious with those two.

Hi, and welcome aboard! Well, Kevin Fawsitt - there's a name from the past. Kevin was the guy with the Simpson helmet wasn't he? My brother Dennis had some dices with him back in 80's, and the name comes up in his racing log, which I still have out in our garage some other stuff of Dennis's. I've got nice photo of the two of them scrapping it out at Brands - only problem is it's too big to scan properly. If I can figure out a way of doing it I'll put it on here. Great days indeed!
All the best

Wow i knew Kevin Fawsitt well, the racing shop was a fave hangout in my TZ days and was owned by Kev's brother, Mick i believe(memory). I used to pop down for some spares and spent the day there having a great laugh, happy memories.

I think it was Steve Fawsitt? Mick.
