Gold Star DBD34

[Steve and Denise]

Well after two or more years of fettling my always wanted Goldie I finally got to have a ride on it well my anatomy was never made to ride this bike (nothing to do with age) so it will be coming up for sale.

 

[hilldweller]

Sad but even GP don't have bars that low.

But the good news is, it's got to be worth £££££££££££

 

[Silver-Fox]

Mmmmm do I need this bike ??

 

[Steve and Denise]

Rich your older than me, or at least you look older ? this one would finish you off, then I would be in trouble with the boss for encouraging you ?

At least the seats are comfy ?

Two too many stokes for me. But still lovely.

 

[Silver-Fox]

Two tooo many stokes for me. But still lovely.

As much as I’d like it, far too much cleaning and polishing ?

It will have been well nailed together knowing what Steve’s like as well.

Yes difficult to beat a nice smoker on full chat ?

You can’t beat a noisy girl when she hits the power band, picked her skirt up and runs like f*** ?

 

[Jaws]

Lovely looking bike and a damned good job of building it..

What was the reason for the carb change ?

 

[Steve and Denise]

The original gp do not have the ability to tick over, the bike is not a restoration that’s pretty much how it came just needed a few things putting right and a bit of sorting.
The chap I bought it from owned it for 30 years he was 84 ! So there is hope for us yet John.?

But you’ve already thrown the towel in.

About time you bought yourself a Harley arm chair ?

Lovely bike Steve, my brother sold his last year to fund the rebuild of a Vincent Rapide. Swap it for a DBD32, much more user friendly.

Well not really I only wanted to ride one and have now done that, if you want to get that out of your system, you can come and have a ride ?

I think we should get together and put some panniers and tassels on your CCM ?

 

[robnchris]

A beautiful bit of kit, understand fitting a concentric carb, I've struggled for 18 months to get my 1953 Bullet running right with a Pre-monoblock but have now fitted a concentric and it now starts and runs sweet as a nut.

Have just spent a fair amount of time and money on this my latest project

Haven't got any more room for another bike at the moment otherwise I would have been round some cash and a trailer.

I always had an itch for one of these but was more into sidecars in my younger days and in the mid 70s they were still a good few quid to buy, but even if I don’t ride it any more I have had one and it looks a picture I have been very lucky to own one very iconic piece of motorcycle history?

Always wanted a DBD34. Probably out of my price range now. SWMBO would probably have a fit even if I could fit it in with the other three bikes.

 

[Steve and Denise]

I never told mine it had been there two weeks before she noticed it, I did try to tell her I built it from bits I had layed around but she did not believe me.?

 

[Enword]

Cant run to a DBD but been playing with a SR500 cafe racer managed to get some bits done including the exhaust & silencer fabricated over the break, the exhaust I've cut & shut from a XB12 Buell

 

[Steve and Denise]

Well after riding the Goldie I realised it is not for me I should have tried one a few years ago when I was more agile ?
But I have had one now and ridden it a few miles job done ! As you say and have finally got around to putting it on eBay with a bit of luck will get my money back £15,000
