crm250 just thought I'd let you know theres a nice little feature on the RC30 in Junes Classic Motorcycle Mechanics. Not a mag I normally buy but I noticed an RC30 peeping at me from the top shelf!

I know the owner (Norman Blakey) vaguely as hes mates with a good mate of mine. I was talking to him a year or so ago and he is obsessed with getting hold of as many classic bikes as possible! He seemed to be buying something every week and everything he bought was mint/low mileage and usually one owner. He seemed prepared to pay top money for such bikes, I think he sees it as some sort of pension fund.

Quite funny as the 3 of us were discussing which bikes we would buy as part of a collection and my friend mentioned an RC45 and I a RC30 and he did not seem too familar with them at the time. Now he has a 30 and is looking for a 45!

He does mention he is also after a 888 as well so anyone with a minter for sale get in touch. Hes a very nice bloke and is in the envious position of being able to build a lovely collection.

Green with envy
