    Now you need it sign written with "Chain-nail" and the logo image.
    Sign written vehicles get more lea way from traffic wardens than plain bikes.

    I ordered a nice cover off eBay guy kept sayin it in customs USA then the news was sorry the cover can only be done for the f4 and he couldn't get templates so. Refund of £50 this cover fabric cost £4 and had to buy glue £5 I'm no textiler or sower but it's a lot better than the old cover

    Due to me not applying enough paint and trial and error and the scheme and the Xmas run did a lot of damage. Mark asked earlier am I keeping it that colour first word out my mouth no, candy is too hard too get right for a first timer so I've ordered sum hi build primer and rosso red paint. Rosso red is what the ford rs turbo and xr3i was. But im unsure if to throw a ghost pearl on top kinda tri paint?
