    I'd spend it on an in-line fuel filter and some additional line clips from Chacal, OR the tool you're gonna need to adjust your valves, which also goes for $15 everywhere. Then again, I have a huge framed turn-of-the century Lucas advertising poster on my living room wall. (British motorcycles had Lucas electricals.)

    Oh, the power of the Catch Phrase accompanying the multi-color print ad.
    I bet the guy what penned that slogan is having a great time on his yacht.

    I'd like to know which magazine that ad was in. If they are still publishing, there may be back issues available in their archives??? Or perhaps the ad agency would consider reprints? I'm sure it would depend on how old the ad is, but you never know.

    Probably CYCLE or CYCLE WORLD. Both were immensely popular in the day, I had subscriptions to both thru the mid 70s-'late 80s and Yamaha used to run the same ads in both.

    LOL.
    Meh I'm not that broke. It's just that I only get so much fun money and right now my bike needs ALOT of stuff.

    I'm glad somebody here got it. I figured it was someone here, because there were no bids on it till I posted :wink:
