Ive seen one of these at a bike show. The guy had to keep using the horn as no one knew we was there (its eletric). They are really light, but that seems to be the only thing going for them as they don't actually make 30 mph

Jesus mate, you still off work with it now?
Just seen the pics on facebook actually, ouch indeed. I'll have to come over your way when you're healed up for a ride out.
That's absolutely the main reason why it's perfect for my missus
Actually in "power" mode it'll do about 30 but I won't tell the wife about that button. I spoke to guy who's tested one, and reckons its pretty good compared to a 50cc stroker, simply because like all electric vehicles it makes max torque from a standstill, so it feels useful and punchy.
No idea mate, they taking there sweet time as usual. Got my independent consultation on 25th June, hopefully know a bit more after that.
Nah TripleT, been back at work for nearly 2 weeks now, couldn't afford to stay off and was going a bit mad. Accident was on 9th January, great start to the year haha! can only get better though
Took it in to my local guy who has done work for me before for a free safety check over / test ride and he’s confirmed that it’s pretty damn mint which is a relief! Hate buying privately for fears of buying a lemon 
He also says that it’s backend has been raised like you thought Wazza so I’ve asked him to lower it back down (I have the dogbones) and give it a wet service / greasing just to be sure as it’s been stood for 9months and it’ll be due one.

Really? I had a small scratch on my shin but I said I wasn't injured wishing I had now lol.
Not posted my Italian for a while...
Fitted a new end can:
I need to trim a bit of the de-cat pip off, as the new end can sits a tad too high - it seems the receiving pipe on the new can is too shallow. You can just about see in this shot, just above the heel area of the rear peg.
And... the side with Rim Tape on!!!
Also, picked this up

If only this came up for sale 18 months from now...
I'd be all over this like a tramp on chips if I had the funds available!

Not only is it a black dream Aprilia Tuono Factory (the last of the v-twins, in the right colour), it's the right mileage (under 10k), has EXACTLY the cans I'd put on one (Hex carbon Akra's), and it's the right price too (around £6K)

Youtube "Mission RS: The Electric Superbike of the Future"
Would post here but think it has a sweary.
Think it comes off at the end of the month
Just take it off now?
Thought the law (or whatever) said it has to stay on, until it runs out? Not that it bothers me...
