This time I will try the "Image" icon to see if it works.

Hurrah it seems to work.

Hi Michael,

Nice bike, you had me confused asking if anyone could recognise where it was. I thought that you were suffering from memory loss and couldn’t remember where you had left it.

Regards

It must have not been parked up very long when you took the photo as there is no oil under the bike.

I wish mine was that clean.

Mike as I said in reply to an earlier comment, my bikes are simply not permitted to drip oil. If they do I shout at the...…..oh yes and my lovely wife shouts at me.

I do spend a lot of time making them all oil tight.

The word also was the clue. Indeed I know where it is as I have just put the cover on it in the garage. No the question was to see if anybody knew where else it has been featured. Anybody????

 Hope this works another oiltight oiltight M 50 M50, even after 1000 hard miles on the Colombres last year!

That looks very nice, indeed beautiful John. Mine is oiltight and has done 83000 miles since the engine was last stripped during its restoration in 1976/77.
