BRYN OWEN missed the Mods heyday. He was sleeping in his pram at the time, But Bryn
BRYN OWEN missed the Mods heyday. He was sleeping in his pram at the time, But Bryn, 17, is making up foritnowinabigway.He rides a motor scooter that would have made a 1960s Mod mad with envy, Saturday 2nd July 1983.
The gleaming machine has more extras than moving parts. There are 81 lights front and back and 34 mirrors.
When the scooter is on the move and all lit up, it looks like a huge yellow flame from the front and a huge red flame from the rear, according to awed locals in Market Bosworth, Leicestershire.
Bryn, a school leaver, bought the eye-catching accessories out of his pocket money, he may even splash out on one more light when he can lose his L-plate to make room for it

BRYN OWEN - A Modern Mod Revival
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from July 2nd, 1983, we catch a glimpse of Bryn Owen, a young man determined to make up for lost time. Although he missed the heyday of Mods due to his tender age at the time, Bryn is now making waves in Market Bosworth, Leicestershire with his impressive motor scooter. Resembling a machine that would have left any 1960s Mod green with envy, Bryn's scooter boasts an array of eye-catching extras. With no less than 81 lights adorning its front and back and an astonishing 34 mirrors reflecting its surroundings, this gleaming yellow beast truly stands out from the crowd.
