Mr Fro Posted May 6, 2014 Posted May 6, 2014 I'll raise you a nobhead running a set of lights and knocking me off on the way back from an MOT (which it passed) a few days after my 21st. I only spent a few hours in hospital but the bike was a write off. Quote
al_stu Posted May 7, 2014 Posted May 7, 2014 The old bike going for mot tomorrow. Terrified it's going to break down (or piss it down)! Quote
