I suggest you have yourself admitted to the nearest padded cell. I can understand the visual appeal, but have you ever ridden one of these things?!!

You'd be better off with a genuine 60's British bike - it'd go better and would have far more street cred.

what a shockingly horrible bike, _what_ was I thinking

look - just swap the motor for a Hybussa and you have the perfect Q-Bike.



Who'se going to admit to being overtaken by that??

It's only really horrible with the 4-speed gearbox (gear box on wrong side upside down pattern) and the kick start.

The 5-speed box (on the left side) electric start models aren't actually too bad (I managed a few overtakes

It's not modern biking , but for a pleasant pootle, what a hoot.
