I nearly cried when I saw the Blue Star! My Dad had one just after WW2. He and my Mam travelled all over Northumberland at the weekends (when they could get petrol!) I played on it as a little lad in the shed where he showed me all the workings and how to ride!I still have bikes at 74 years old because of him and that old Beeza. Thank you for reminding me of such wonderful times!!!
Hope all is well with dave and the work on the commando! Looking forward to the next workshop vlog! And the super rocket project bike! Empire star plodders at the best!
I knew a guy with a commando mk3 under warranty that snapped it's side stand when he was filling up and damaged a petrol pump. He said "wish I had bought a Laverda SF"
Just found your channel, very good and interesting stuff indeed. I have a question for you, do you know the colour of green on the Blue Star or its RAL number? I am hoping to use this colour to paint a bike im working on atm. I hope you can help me. Thanks in advance.

Where is Dave?
Dave's taken a step back from the channel for various reasons
What happened to Dave Mitchell.... he's the best.... hope he's ok
Hey, Dave's taken a step back from the channel for various reasons and we won't be doing any more videos together unfortunately
His voice reminds me of a character from waynes world 2.....the roadie Del Preston.......hope he doesn't count M&M's .
