New rider poses a serious threat

Post by Jug »

Just a warning that we have newbie hitting the streets on a 700.

I escorted the mrs to Taunton test centre today, and as a reward had to return home on a 125. :?

Here is Claire on her MT-07 minus L plates, the streets are no longer safe, you have been warned. :mrgreen:

What she needs is a 20 yo Blackbird. Going cheep as ignition wiring ripped out. REALLY comfy and ignored by the fuzz.
