Old fart I still have some old Pricerite, Aeroflyte and Pilot mounts as well. Older women etc, well they are in my mind a better proposition. Re bikes, when I was in Malaysia in the 90's the "smart expats" discovered that there were heaps of 50's era english bikes around, really cheap. I believe the "english gentlemen / expats" returned something like 2 to 300 AJs, Nortons, BSA's Matchless and Manx bikes to the UK while I was there. Similar situation in Vietnam when I was there at the turn of the century except it was Citroen cars and 60's era american auto's.
