What was the CCM like?
It was mad 3 foot seat height, trouble was I've only got 2 foot 6 legs. It had a Bladon Brothers built 710cc big bore kit. Great on country roads. However part of my daily commute was 40 miles on the motorway. Sold it when my neck grew 2 inches wider, due to the lack of wind protection!

You don't need to tell me !, the older I get, the slower I get. Things start approaching a little too quick for my liking if I go much quicker.

Only had a couple of bikes in my life, me brothers the biker and I'm the other one. Had a Suzy GS850G and a Kwak GPZ600R. The Kwak was very quick for its time, the Suzy was dreadful and went round corners like skippy on a skateboard. There are many lovely bikes out there, past and present, but you only have to look at the photo of a bike and a GP parked together to see why I still ride Scooters.
