Hiya Scott welcome T'org and welcome to the black curvey group too :D I can confirm that Black and White n Blue are the fastest colours mate! :D

Just out of interest how much did the stealer sell it to you for? Just interested because of the low-ish mileage on it. Can tell me to bog off if you like :thumbsup:

Better?

yes.......... tecnacly the mudgaurd should be black on that colour scheme, but i think yellow is better

although it looks a bit darker?

dunno?

im thinking of getting the same model as i have now, but in yellow, but as its 10 years old, im thinking i might go for a newer one 2003ish, but i prefer the looks on the older one

10 years old? Thats nothing! as long as it's regularly serviced and maintained it'l be fine,

Classic bike insurance too!
