Re: My cutdown,before and after
Bloody 'el Red, that could only happen to you :shock: First off, glad you're OK, could have been a lot worse. Any idea how it happened ?

Re: Sanford 2009
Well done cobby bet that made all the hard work over xmas worth while mate :mrgreen: Cheers mate, it did, the trophy was a nice surprise (Cutting Edge). A 500 mile round ride in March was a bit of a tester for the old aching bones, and an electrical problem on the way down added to the "fun&qu...

Rear hub question
Already posted on another well known website, so appologies if you've read before. I've got a rear hub issue thats bugging me.

Re: Number plates -??
I thought about buying a six digit number to replace my seven digit, trouble is if your scoot is an import registered through the DVLA the number they issue is non transferable (I think ?)druist wrote:Anyone know how much it is to get personal plates with 6 digits?

I needed to get one quickly so went along with it, the photo below shows how ridiculous it looks and you can't get your side panels on and off easily. Needless to say I w...
