My wife just came in to me and said, “I don’t know if I am coming or going.” I said to her, “Judging by the look on your face, you’re going – ‘cos when you’re coming, you look like a franking Down Syndrome kid trying to whistle!”

Re: 1983 VDC Gorila
The handlebars are very rare VDC pit bike bars and were not Powerlite. They have VDC decals on them and are obviously a Monkey bar made by VDC. Did Voris make Powerlite stuff? I think he made bars seatposts forks and frames for just about every company at one time or another.
