Hi, not a car but another two wheeled addition-I’ve fancied one of these for ages so when one popped up fairly locally i had no choice :P
They’ve not changed much in decades and certainly not a performance machine, it’s the sound & styling that does it for me :thumbsup:

If you ever think I'm off my rocker.. Just put me back in it and walk away... It's the kindest thing
My wife says I never listen - or something like that.

Buy it & then (possibly) tell her :P
