Starting a job I wish I hadn't.. Nice day on Sat..   Thought I'd finally fit the new mudguard..  So forks off..   Decided to paint underside of headset as original finish a bit iffy..   Then the forks needed a going over..   Hopefully get it back together on Mon to go to work on Tue  |

Very clean and original looking T5 bryno, nice.
Was that rack always black or did you paint it or coat it?
Good luck with getting it together for Tuesday.

Having spent too many years fixing up motors outside, I spent a bit of time sorting my garage, one side is all metal chequer plate under my car and also where the scooter sits, rest of floor is painted to keep the dust down, have built a big storage area from the ceiling, loads of shelves, power sockets, good lighting and a work bench, it's a nice place to work now Never had a problem with the plate, but TBH on my ride to the station & back daily never seen a police car. On longer journeys I do stick the yellow one back on |

hi, my BF has just bought a new cream vespa. i wish to purchase a jacket for him to match his new slick mode of transport. This is proving difficult as most are quite plain or disgusting. I will need it shipped to Ireland and really appreciate some feedback. ((sorry to gate crash your conversation. )) |

was going to change to a fold-down rack soon.. nice t5 mate ;D , i would keep that nice rack as it suits the bike well , i'v got a fold down rack on my p125x and its a pain to put stuff on  it's like using a bear trap , heavy stuff is ok but lighter things get squashed up in the jaws as spring is powerfull , even 5 litres of fuel in a can won't hold it down   |

Start a new thread in 'Everything else scooter related' - someone'll probably answer your query  |

I was just going to say, nice rack Bryno - I took ages finding one to fit and bought from SIP in the end.

dto, that looks like the rack I was thinking of with the backrest, rest does look pretty small thou.. maybe better with what I've got plus a flip over rest Thanks Lucia, I got this rack to carry a top box (uggh!) as I have to leave my helmet in it, do prefer the look of the more upright ones though.. |
