Russ are you still looking for the single seat for it or sticking with the one that's now on it?

Did you sort out the number plate light?, tbh I wouldn't worry about it and the old bill would be more likely to stop you on it just to have a closer look :)


its looks great, which engines in it?

Must say Russ that this looks even better in the flesh. Good to see you AND the scoot at Warsop.
