Very good analysis, it is true that the world moves very fast and not always in the right direction and it is not always easy to move with our old bikes .... so caution is required at all times .. See you soon, I leave in preparation meeting of these two days that we wish pleasant and well secured.

Thank you Mini-me for your point of view and I understand it very well, it becomes difficult to enjoy these good times or we can meet around our passions ..... I would do some photos to show you the atmosphere.
Thank you also to you Rex for this point of view which is new to me, because I am too used to France ..... However I already went to London (East Dulwich) with my BMW R69 / s in 1971 to see my school correspondent ( Patricia) and I went to Ireland 12 times, but never on a motorcycle, it's for later when the Honda 750 K2 will be restored. I also know Hungary and I plan a tour through the north of Italy and Austria to go see girl in the CSONGRAD (southern Hungary) .... But I understand that the roads (out highways) are dangerous !!!

In reality it is quite easy. It clings back down the mudguard. When stopped, the driver is positioned behind, lowers the crutch and the ground with his foot and with his hand he takes the loop that is seen above the fender and exerts a movement backwards, this lift the wheel and the crutch pivots.

Normally it is the law of supply and demand that works. Cars and motorcycles often go abroad, as enthusiasts from all over the world buy in Britain or elsewhere. Good luck with your research .

It is true that the two-tone brown is class, mine is from 1958 and is putty color with chrome tank. It has less than 30,000 km of origin. It was also possible to choose its color provided you put the price and can wait time to redo the appropriate paint

Congratulations on your past commitments! and I wish you good health for all these years to come.
It is true that many Motobecane were black was a time then brown (light and dark). In the 50s and 60s, it was more like "Putty". But in the 20s and 30s there were beautiful shimmering colors embellished with chrome for the 250, 350 and 500 tumbled. Hoping to have answered your questions, I will make photos on June 22 and 23 and post them for you on this site. Best regards
