He he, £600 quids worth of finest Chinese engineering off of eBay

It arrives like this




Some assembly required



Had to get a mate of mine who is an upholsterer to re profile the seat so I can touch the floor !




I'm just waiting for the nice people at the DVLA to send me the registration and mark details so I can get out and do some "hacking"

That looks well proper. What engine its got? 4stroke 2 stroke?

Is the side stand short or is the block of wood come with it?

Is that the one with the 30 day warranty?

Looks nice but it's gonna fall to pieces.

Probably, well it'll keep me quiet mending it. Most of the welding looks like its been done by a blind chimp with a twitch !

Nice! I always wonder how Chinese people touch the floor on these things as generally they arent as tall as Europeans?!

Be interesting to see what it looks like after the winter!
