        Look on the bright side, at least you'll get used to riding in the rain! 🙂

                What @harley dave said, but if your ride ends up looking like this then something has gone horribly wrong!

                                Unfortunately not.  In UK.  I am now only legally allowed to ride a 125 until I pass 2 more computer tests and 2 more practical tests…...And it has to wear L plates....

                                      When I was originally going to take my test, beer was 11P for a mild and 12P for a bitter.  My BSA 250 Star blew up 2 days before my test, I did not rebuild it in time and then life took over…....

                                      It was like this.  I sold it for GBP100.......

                                          I haven't had much time to do much on my Bonneville for ages, so it's been sitting in pieces while I've been changing pipes and a few other bits and pieces.  I got sick of this state of affairs so decided to put her all back together this weekend so I can actually ride again.  I started her up for the first time with the new Zard Cross pipe…. shoots a 2 foot blue cone of flame out the back! Didn't expect that, but looked pretty amazing!  Sounds pretty phenomenal too 🙂

                                          Well done on jumping through the first hoop G 🙂
