The pallet looks more sturdy than the motorcycle will be.

^^^Agree, I'm liking the look of that pallet. Note how they used 3 fixings on each corner and two for the rest. Totally over engineered.

[edit] I don't know how I missed it but Wow! Titanium strips on the pallet base. Those Chinese have really raised the bar.

Hah, nearly bought one myself last week, perhaps I should have and we could've had a race

£720 when I was looking.

Edit: down to £610 now, could be the bargain of the year.

Lots to do; I'm not just chucking it together, I want to thread lock, waxoil etc and paint the side panels to match. Probably chuck the Metzeler me22's I have on it too.

I'm on a computer now so I can give a bit more info.

The bike is from Riders Yeovil. It was £610 in the crate, plus delivery of £85. I've got to register it (£55) and tax it, and get a numberplate when the V5 comes through, also insure it from the chassis number in order to register it.

It's a 110cc 3 speed with electric start, a larger front drum and wider rear wheel than a C90. They do a single seat with a rack or a twin bench seat, I wanted a single seat so I can fit luggage. This bike is taking me from Le Havre - Catalunya in June for the GP.

It looks pretty well built.

[Rigga]

Awesome, i'll keep my eye on this thread.

Obviously the expectation will be fairly low, given the purchase price, but what does the quality look like, especially compared to the Honda original?

interesting post.

You got the best colour choice by the look of it, thought the gold would be cool but having seen a picture I think the red is best.

Garth, is that insurance from the frame number or if it's registered?
I've got a thread open asking about bikes for winter, might be interested in one of these if I can get it prepped fast enough!

I haven't registered it yet, I just ran a quote and left the reg out. I'll phone the insurers up when I come to do so, just use the quote provided and explain the situation.

They'll issue a cover note with the frame number, once my V5 comes through I'll advise them of the reg, AFAIK.
