The Spare Parts Collection That Came With A Free Motorcycle
Have you ever bought a classic motorcycle and ended up with three boxes of mystery parts, two coffee tins full of bolts, and a collection of brackets that seem to belong to absolutely nothing?
Every classic motorcycle owner knows the feeling.
You start by thinking:
"Great, loads of spare parts included."
A few weeks later you're asking:
"What exactly did these come off?"
Then comes the moment years later when you finally identify a strange rusty bracket... just after you've thrown it away.
The unwritten rule of classic motorcycling seems to be simple:
If you keep a spare part, you'll never need it.
If you throw it away, you'll need it next week.
What's the most mysterious spare part you've ever found with a motorcycle purchase?
