It is bullit proof. You may have a job finding one though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nickerbelly 0 Posted August 24, 2011 I'll bet you're very glad to finally get it out of the way, it's onwards and upwards from now on! as well as the usual options, I would suggest having a look at the new(ish) magazine called "practical sportsbike" as well as the good old "classic bike" as they often have that sort of bike in the classifieds - good luck with your bike shopping!
