new owner

Hi all

I have been looking for a bec for a few months now, and trying to find one that ticks the boxes i was after and in good condition was hard.

But I am the proud owner of a aries locoblade that is as new condition and a vvv good spec list.

I will post some pics up over the next few days

thanks
ian

Nice car... If you see a Black Harley Davidson wave at you around Cambridge... Thats me.. I sold the Viento and bought a bike.
I'm ticking things off my bucket list, done V8 Sports Car, now its Bike (after a 40 year break from Bikes)

SG7 club meet just south of Baldock, a nice run out on a Sunday morning. ie not too far etc etc.
Keep an eye on the CLUBS & EVENTS section on here.
Just watch the Speed Cams on the A505 though!







1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

Best Regards

I have done abit of tinkering today.

--I have moved the speed sensor for the digi dash from the mud gard fixings, to a alloy bracket that i have made that bolts to the hub.

--the magnets are stuck to the brake disc now and not the alloy wheel, so hopefully i wont have them getting knocked off when i go over a bump.

--I also put some stronger springs on the accelerator pedal, as it was far to soft for me. now it feels better for my big feet lol

-- fitted a tax disc tube holder
