    I dont drive that fast anyway but it will be nice to have it in reserve..the 200 still has some niggles but to be expected after being laid up for 7years..ill chip away at it, being very lazy atm. Id love to drop a 1.8 vvc into it.
    Ive put a thread in the other projects section for the ZS. Only one rubbish pic atm

    So it takes around 25 minutes to ride to work? It'll be worth it in the long run!

    Yes, yes they are, but be aware they can be dangerous if used incorrectly. My club had one of its bi annual BBQs today and I managed to win a spot landing competition.

    I went for the KYB Gas-a-just kit that mini spares are doing at a good price right now

    I was struggling to get it insured - 90% of providers I called put the phone down when I said I was 17, had no NCD and it was a Jap import - don't think they understand that it was made here in the first place... but eventually I found a specialist broker that took me on at a pretty good price too - so the mini is staying (would have killed me to sell it to be honest!)
