Re: Broken C2C Screen

Have a look at Plastex. It can be used to repair many things including screens and come in clear as well as other colours.

Re: Insurance and breakdown

I broke down on way back from a euro 40k from the ferry in Zeegbrugge, with four hours to spare. The phone call to CN started a nightmare. Summary is the AA wouldn't take me to the ferry.

Re: Your First scooter /first car ?

First scooter was a 1974 primavera bought for £75 with my Saturday job money from the drummer of a local Liverpool Mod band ‘The Sound’. It had the biggest ever windscreen with ‘The Sound’ in massive letters across it. I rode it around for a week until someone said to me “how much is your insurance?...

The last one is my favourite, shouldn't have sold it, never mind. http://i954.photobucket.com/albums/ae29/150sportique/1630.jpg http://i954.photobucket.com/albums/ae29/150sportique/1581.jpg http://i954.photobucket.com/albums/ae29/1...

Re: Avanti woes

After many years scootering and buying many bits from dealers up and down the country and in europe, the best customer service I've ever had was from Ron, by a country mile. I remember many suffered when the TS1 came out thirty years ago. If we'd had forums then, some would've gone out of business. ...

Re: Motorcycles

Ditto the cozy worship. I started out at sixteen fettling my primmy in the back yard. Quickly moved to a tarpaulin over the washing line to fix the Lammy and have eventually progressed to a nice warm garage with toys. At one point I had a super stock spec 600 for track days and a Honda runaway chick...
