Not a big incentive to spend time and effort on them.

The forks go through the round bits and the headlight bolts to the flat bits (technical terms!)<br />1750 for a Cubbie!!!! Are you sure it wasn't priced in Zimbabwe dollars? What else could you buy for £1750? How about 3 MZ Skorpions? Or for £250 less, an immaculate 9 year old Fireblade (as a friend of mine did). 1750 for a Cubbie isn't a joke, it's an insult. Are you sure the seller didn't have some magic beans as well?<br />Meanwhile, like the groovy green forks. Are you going to paint your nails to match?<br /><br /> UNAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2814514724514228543.post-88717598644782338642009-04-21T11:00:00.000+01:002009-04-21T11:00:00.000+01:00I like the sidecar idea for Mrs B.C.
