Ironman information sticky thread?

I know it's been missing lately but it was up last night. I was half way through it and wanted to continue today but it's gone again.

The sticky that was like 5 members just chatting together? Too many stickies in the c&v as it is. I could see the thread just turning into a normal one, but odd that its disappeared entirely.

there is this one too- https://www.bikeforums.net/classic-v...-jobs-357.html

Thanks for that link. I know it was included with the sticky threads last night, but gone again today. It's a great source for information, along with the other Ironman thread.

I started it long ago for information.
Never asked for it to be a sticky, nor did I agree with it being so, but it was what it was.
I deleted my original post, which wiped out the thread, I guess.
Appears the mods put it back. Their right to do so; this is not a democracy.
Thuggery comes in many forms.

Doesn't really matter. They're just bikes.

I never thought that I'd live to see the day when RT would refer to Centurion Ironmen as "just bikes".

Fortunately there's still the vintage-centurion website. It has pretty much the same thing as the (RIP) Ironman info thread, plus more. It includes all centurion bikes.
