I agree my friend, I just don't know when to do it. Every day for the past week has been pissing it down EVERY day. I wish I could confidently put a date on which to do my mod2. But I am going to to get a day or two of lessons. I don't know when i'll do them. Shocked

I was quoted £125 a day, 2 days minimum required in order to book.
Test fee of £75 separately.

VERY good on the MPG... and from the factory, It's 22bhp at 8,500 rpm so probably about 19bhp now

£400 is brilliant in that condition if its running ok not too many clunks, better than a cg for commutes little more power comes in handy and not much less mpg, I will have to get one or like I think Thumbs Up Very Happy
