Just looked and to be honest I didn't pay much more for this one from a friend with less than 1000 miles on clock and 2 former owners,one being my friend who owned it for 18 months and used it twice. He's 68 now and has a few other 2 wheelers so this didn't see any use.

Yes it is. Pulled my fat carcass up to 55 relatively easily which is enough for where I live and what it's main purpose will be. Thinking about it even when I go to Glossop I barely do more than 50 in the car anyway.

The boy said his scooter is starting to slow down again. He reckons he puts premium petrol in it. I wonder what's causing it.

Bub any interest an awful hard tail reliant engined trike
They're trying to get it road legal at the moment. Frame looks good, on a Q but has the reliant gear change still which is under the tank! It really wants some sort of extension to make it into a suicide change on the side of the tank.

Depends on how much. If its already registered on a q that's the hard work done. I'll ask around up here too.
