Driving down towards plymouth this morning I was quietly minding my own business in lane 1, Planning the day, spending a lottery who in my head etc.
Then there was a rumble passing me, a 1200 Bandit that looked familiar, saw the plate, yup, it was Roy's old bike being thrashed down the A38 weaving between cars.
Some things don't change.

Re: the Bandit still lives
Good to hear 
. But were the tyres bald? Did he keep the bike upright on the bends while leaning his body? Did he overtake a police car on the outside of double white lines on a bend? That would have confirmed it

Re: the Bandit still lives
i'm not sure if the lane/car weaving was intentional or some form of possession.

Re: the Bandit still lives
Maybe due to the 30 year old suspension giving up the ghost. And Roy probably put washing up liquid instead of fork oil in the front end
