Hello from Shrewsbury

#1 PostAuthor: redzee » Thu May 04, 2023 6:31 pm

Hello All,
I am a returning member following a 6 year distraction with other things, bikes/life etc.
Me and my Z1000J3 celebrate our Ruby anniversary this August (40 years together), and as a celebration, she is being slowly re-commissioned following a (very) long layup. It'll be slow but sure, and I might be asking a few questions, along the way, so please be patient with me.
Thanks for having me back.
Col

I have a 900 A4 I bought from Shrewsbury a long time ago, it's stripped waiting for rebuild , been a long time . It's a Shrewsbury number I believe too.

Hi Andy,

My mate at work from Shrewsbury sold a green A4 many moons ago and has regretted it ever since. Maybe it's the one you bought? I'll ask him what the reg was and get back to you.
Shrewsbury numbers ended in AW, NT, UJ, UX and others I don't recall now.

Hi Andy,

What a coincidence, see PM that I've sent you.
