That's the one.

BTW, most bikes back then had single carbs and none of us knew much about carb synch, so if it was needed we never knew. :)
 
In all probability, back then it would have been the Shadows - Riders in the Sky, or Apache, or Jerry and the Pacemakers - Ferry 'Cross the Mersey, or maybe Lulu - Shout, or maybe Stones - Carol, or Roll Over Beethoven. Maybe some fifties US Rock and Roll or perhaps Elvis.
 
In 65, weren't they still getting blues records from the states (Howlin Wolf, Muddy Waters, Big Mama Thornton)? If you wanted to listen to rock, I think you had to listen to the pirate ships off the coast...

This is a later performance of it, or maybe walk don't run. Of course most guys in England preferred the Shadows.
