Looking good. Is that one of the blata ones? If you're any where near Harlow you should give us a shout and we could hook up for a bit of racing. There's a road safety centre in Harlow that's good for the mini motos but the surface is rough and it takes chunks out bikes and bodies.

In the manual it says it does between 28-30mph, so i dont know what bhp that is.

Theres a reason for that boy! Cos my jeans are quite baggy, the 1st time i got on it the bottom of the legs got covered in cr@p when i went through a puddle... so i pulled em up :lol: :wink:
