    Much as I absolutely fucking hate coppers......if I was one, I'd have not bothered about your lack of tax disc (I keep mine in a plastic bag unde the seat) but I'd have done you for your silly headlight covers.
    They look wank as well as dangerous......sorry mate.

    :confused:

    He's not been on as yet as I've only been out on it twice myself and he was at school.

    I'm going to get the Venture high back rack fitted just for piece of mind as he tends to go to sleep on the back, A LOT!

    I'll keep you posted.

    Cheers for the kind words

    Regards Raymondo n Ben

    Since 2009 yes lol

    Hope you like the read. I try to keep em brief and add loads of links.

    The Blog started out as a record of the build of Bens bike Trinity and just grew from there. It gets between 2 & 3,000 hits a month which makes it worth while keeping alive.

    Hope you like the new Snow Fall picture :)

    All the best to you n yours Raymondo n Ben

    I can reccommend someone who makes comfort seats for our bikes if you feel the need at any point.
