That's a bit strong! If it's in good running order and on the road still, who cares what the OP has done to it?

It would be like seeing someone rescue a 1930's old abandoned car, and re-build it as a mint hot rod, throwing loads of money at it. Then you say they fucked it, when really they rescued a nice old car and let it live on for years to come!

msob - Why do you want it deleting? As much as 'patina' is flavour of the month, it's your bike (moped?) to be built and treated as you see fit. I think it looks really well done, credit to you.

Inb4 the delete.

It looks fantastic, msob, like it just rolled out of the showroom.

Patina is just the in-word for "shagged out".

It's a lovely bike, but why the sand in your vagina?

If only one opinion was allowed in replies, someone should have said.

I quite like the seat it's funky, reminds me of the chequered roofs on the old minis very 60s. Thumbs Up
