        All work and no play make @Giles a dull boy.

        Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
        Well, I have others.

          Nice bike there @Giles - now all you need is to get yourself road legal.

              Yeah, the legal bit.  But FFS, I live in Gosport and I have a licence and insurance on my cars, I'm a singular rarity….

                In the UK, the open air transport of hazardous materials on public roadways requires special safety licensing.

                Giles's face is so frightening, it's actually illegal for him to ride in public…

                        @Madame Buttonfly  says something similar, but when she says it, "amazing" sounds just like "areshole"…..

                            Great looking bike G! Looks clean, nimble, and fun. Would love to see it featured in an IH promo video. 😉

                              Awesome job!
                              The comparison between the blue fugly starting product and this bad ass Scrambler is superb.
                              I like the clean reduced look, the coloring and the tires.

                                do they have some sort of list of things they did to the original blue "thing" ? would be nice to know it all somehow… @Giles

                                            I wondered why Giles had to go to the office to do some "work" yesterday  😠
