Hi, could you tell a bit about your luggage setup? Make, model etc. A custom bracket or something from the self?

Thanks in advance

The 6 month MOT extension is now showing on the government website, so the Firestorm is now taxed again, and the wee Kawasaki 125 is as well. Well the Kawasaki is now registered as a historic vehicle, so no need for MOT and the road tax is free :D

Just need to ride them :(

Got the Husqvarna* out & cut the lawn... :lol: :lol:

De-stapled the rear part of the seat off Nue Red removed the extra padding on the pillion bit, re-stapled it, now the seat pod fits on...

To satisfy Malcs MOT OCD as he pointed out as it has no rear footpegs it should fail the MOT as it has two seats... :lol: :lol:

Never bothered the bloke whos tested the last two times... :thumbup:


* Ok so its a Flymo but Husqvarna make them their name is of the specs plate & they do make & market mowers & garden stuff in their name as well Plus it is orange... :lol: :lol:
Making up since 2007, sometimes it's true...Honest...
