RE: 5.5" Rear wheel on E-Bay in Pomgolia

Some of us 'Colonials' even watch Fawlty Towers and Blackadder..................

I'm sure no offence was meant here.
Us Souf Effricans get called all sorts of things..............

I thought it was amusing, hadn't heard the term before - and my whole family are from Lincolnshire/Bristol......!

As mentioned by ********

We have allot of members from everywhere around the globe , and quite of Aussies and members from the UK all of whom do not or did not know these great old rides as Hurricane's...

Its weird that they were given a special name in some countries ...

there are loads of models with names that we never got over here, and some wierd and wonderfull models we never got full stop lmao, automatic bikes for instance, the only one i can think of is a 'dream 400' john pertwee,[doctor who] had one.
mind you then we can move to cars, you lucky buggers get v8's in everything
