..........and, this what I fished out of the Z900’s petrol tank! :shock: God only knows how many years they’ve been in there, but one is for a BMW K100 and the other for a RD125 LC Mk2 - hopefuly that one didn't have the string attached when it was 'dropped' in! :roll:
Not sure what the abbreviations ROFW and IPCE mean, anyone?

I Googled Abbey M/Cs and they are now a used bike spare supplier in Leicester, not sure if they always were?

Mystifying, there's over 110 miles between Barrie Robson BMW in York and Abbey M/Cs in Leicester and the writing is the same? :??

HNY to all
Cheers, Andrew

Abbey,M/C'S have always been leicester based as far as I know.
Not had a lot of stuff from them as they came along after z's gpz's etc so most of their stuff seems to be later.
But they have helped me out with a few bits and pieces and are always fair to deal with and reasonably priced.

look like they could be tags from a motorcycle courier delivery.....don't know why they would end up in a petrol tank though!
