still to fit the rear light but i taped a lens on and got about ten miles out on it, nothing fell of, nothing exploded and no fluid leaks. what i did notice, its a bit frisky in corners, as in steers so much faster than the yellow one. first roundabout i near ended up going up the inside curb :clap: :clap: :clap: .happy days..
the older i get,the faster i was :lol:
