I never said it wasn't ;-) But in comparison to my little CG it is a monster.

You'll need a few ancillaries, like an engine, fuel tank, electrical system and most important, a FRONT wheel!;)

Mine is the one behind it with a yammy badge on it!

All those bits for MYCs are spread around the garage slowly getting closer to it...

Great bike the CG, it was my first many years ago. Never broke down.
I had a route home where I used to count how many times I could touch the centre stand down!

Lol don't mention wheelies, I accidentally managed to pull a little one after dumping the clutch on the Cagiva Planet...possibly whilst heading toward with a drop off a wall...ahem...

We've all done it, i know i have, just not so little, ending up sitting on the rear seat, across 2 lanes heading towards a barrier :rolleyes:

I would like to see the end product though :cool:

Matt says IHRC that it was a feature in MC mechanics mag a while ago.
