[QUOTE="vinut, post: 163661, member: 664"] I bought Jeffs Suzuki Titan 500cc from him in 1971 , he finished 6th in the proddy TT in 1970 on it . And a year later 71, I was part of his pit crew when he rode the John Tickle Manx Norton that he finished 18th on in the senoir race with it . I had the honour of riding the manx from our digs / workshop in Douglas , down the promenade full mega blasting away , had to stop at the Policeman who was directing the traffic , and then he let us all ride up to the grandstand for ther start !! I still have that silly grin even now thinking about it ! And Ron Owen Pullin lived round the corner to me , as did Jeff in Buckhurst Hill Essex .Jeff was a postoffice engineer at the time , really nice guy and a great laugh !He had a lovely Egli Vincent that was tuned by Ron Lewis , who was famed for the saying ,"What man Has Made Man Can Make Again " .Happy Days :-) [/QUOTE]
