Just had some old negatives digitised!!

Rusty82 · Dec 17, 2014

Just had these pics and a few more digitised. Going to select the first two to be re-done using a high resolution and then an advanced touch up process - cost about $40 per negative but then they will look brand new and be able to be blown up to a large poster size (which I will also be doing and sending straight to the pool room.....If only I had a pool table). Gotta love the awesome stylin pose of the original owners mate while they were out on the photo shoot - Classic!!

They are of the bike I restored a few years ago when it was a wee baby about 1 month old!! A good reference for anyone with an 1981 GSX750SZ.

Cheers
Rusty

yep, old mate had the look from back then. Could have been my mate sitting on my 1100 if he had black hair.

Very cool pics Rusty.

.....the bottom pic is especially rare. There are a lot of blokes that until now have never seen the front of a blue seat!

Just found this one this morning. That's my old Kat with my brothers Virago. I think this was early 1990's?

Thanks Rusty. It would be nice if I could find her and bring her home.
Don't you just hate it when you get rid of all your toys as a kid, then as a grown up you want them all back. :lol:
