    Always fancied one of those when I were a nipper. I'll pass though on
    account of being too lanky.

    It went 60 miles round the dales yesterday and the only failure was the
    clutch cable. Not a problem with the slickshift box, you can set off
    without one. If thats not a Unique Selling Point I don't know what is!

    It's a good bike for the money. The frame's nice and straight, and the
    anciliaries are good. It just needs some input from new owner to improve
    what is basically good kit and get it set up to the optimum after a
    couple off years layoff.

    I'd really like it and I mean *really* like it - but can't.
    Unfortunately.

    @news.individual.net:

    It'd feel underpowered and underbraked compared to your T3.
