    A real barn find!!

    Historic Brough motorcycles discovered in Cornwall barn
    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cornwall-35091164
    A collection of eight rare motorcycles is discovered in Cornwall after being stored in barns for more than 50 years.


    Eight Brough Superiors in a barn!! Wonder if the auctioneer will say 'ran good when stored'?


    1980 GS550ET

    Hoarders are weird, just a collector gone obsessive.
    The rebuild thread is gonna be way too long and detailed for me to follow.

      Cornwall's not a good place to store anything, the rebuilds will cost a pretty penny, LOL.

        I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.
