My '78 Special is now Irish. I picked her up today in Cork after 7 weeks at sea. She took her first breath of Irish fuel and air on the way to my local for a pint of Guinness.
Happy days.

Ireland.
Back from the States.
Have to say the bike feels better here.
Less traffic and some courtesy shown to us lowly bikers.
Not knocking the States,but it's just more biker friendly here.
