New chain and sprockets arrived today ,so started stripping and cleaning ready to fit the new parts tomorrow . I purchased the new set with slightly different gearing with the aim to improve acceleration . I purchased from italy and got a great deal and service .

You don't legally need a number plate light on a motorbike or scooter , but if fitted it must work. I removed mine when I did tail tidy on tmax and it passed mot.

Took my Vespa GTS 300 for its 5000km service today. Down at Colchester Kawasaki. I must say, what a great bunch of people. I was made to feel like a customer should!
