If you mean BB's avatar, I think thats a Moto Morini 31/2 which I have had the pleasure of trying to keep up with once upon a time. Now, a picture with BB with L plates would be a picture ;D ;D ;D ;D

Keep digging Nick! ;D ;D

No worries - you're forgiven! Job to tell the difference with a helmet on and I've been called Son, Sir & Mr a few times over the years and it's a looonnnng time since I got rid of my L plates!

Yes, that's my little 350 Morini in the Avatar, not terribly fast top end but pretty nimble round the twisties! ;)

Nick, sounds like you're not having a lot of fun with the trike... Why not step back from it a moment and ponder this question - would it be easier to learn to ride a bike instead? :-? :-? :-?

Scotty i can ride a bike just fine .. but alas ive failed my test twice and cant keep affording to doing it all again .. it gets more expensive every year mate

Bad luck Nick. Maybe its an adjustment thing if it keeps snapping?

It's raining out there anyway! :D
