There's another Joe Bar figure with a 750Four that looks more realistic.  We got it off Ebay, and my wife proudly displays it in her office (just tells everyone it is her husband  ;)).

He couldn't have been an Aussie Steve, he was riding a sheila's bike! (Ooh, sorry, I see you've got one too........................) :D

I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"
