    My Z650 had both and my CB750 does as well. Always started the Zed on the kick start, mainly because I was to lazy to fix the electric one

    Was in the dealers this afternoon having my new front brake light switch fitted when this interesting thing rolled up

    Some "interesting" engineering going on,the exhaust will keep the sidecar passengers feet warm,though I do like the coolbox seat,somewhere to keep the beer.
    Any way! if you want a new Street Twin.........October :(
    Liking the new Explorer ;) Think I'll book a test ride soon.

    The outfit looks like something either made for competition or as a disabled persons transport, to me.

    It reminds me, in it's style of construction, of my wife's horse-drawn competition marathon 4 wheeler vehicle - light but strong.

    Just back from a 60 mile spin in the Shropshire/Worcestershire countryside. Stopped off at a popular bikers cafe at Quatford. Lovely ride, warm and quite sunny.

    No riding for me today. The bikes still in bits while I sort out the valve shims but while the weather was good I had the chance to pull a gearbox out of a land rover.

    You are not buying the twin triple jobbie then, I was in sunny Brightlingsea on my machine this afternoon a very funny smell of two stroke in the air that was attacking the back of my throat.:D:D:D:D

    Ditto on the suspension, as per my other post, also out for 50 mile run since switching to Hagon front and rear made a real difference, a pleasure to ride on the awful roads we have to endure.
