I'm very interested. :)
Sorry gn2, only just realised you'd posted this. I'll be in touch! I'll pm you in a day or two.
Probably not ugly enough for the 'Ugly Bunch'! :lol:

Been riding for 55 years & owned too many bikes to list here...

Possibly - mines the matt grey n black rather than the gloss black...
I usually wear Draggin Urban Camos - or 'Pantomime Cow Trousers' :oops: as my 8 yr old daughter calls em...
And as for people shouting... especially around Catford, I tend to ignore em - plus I wear ear plugs...

Paul you may want to look on here for parts etc, good service and prices. If you cant find what you want on the site email them and they will put it on. For mine OEM air filter £22 here £11 from them, OEM mirror £82 here £54 from them. Shipping costs are very low and they take PayPal.

Nice...
For servicing i have found a complete HiFlo filter kit - both Air filters, Crankcase filter, and oil filter for £22 - same as a Majesty - OE would be over £60...
plus front pads (EBC SFA Organics) for £10 a pair... http://www.msa-direct.co.uk/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

There is also a little motorcycle type motorfactors local-ish in Sevenoaks/Otford so will give them a try for odds and sods - save on p&p...
But nice find in case of the need for OE parts and pannels, mirrors etc - could make all the difference...
