I'd have thought that was hard to steer. Plenty of room for the family though.  Cheesy

Looks very like Desperate Dan's build style. Q plated, so presumably been MSVA'd, which shows what will & won't pass.
So how did it do on the dyno?

marred

Sorry for the bad spelling, that should of said married. I had a bad fall yesterday, I fell of the conservatory roof while stepping onto a ladder, I have bashed myself up quite badly and scratched my glasses so I cant see out of them very well, not something I recommend doing, I'm over 50 and not exactly light it came as quite a shock.
