    That was plain weird. Never worked it out till he told us it was a bike.

    Yes, I was never really happy about it. Didn't work at the tiny size. One or two members loved it and actually PM'd me to say so, IIRC. A bigger version makes sense. No good for an avatar though. Just noticed my old comfy gloves. Must dig them out:

    Exactly so.
    My model does have the famous VFR 'coupled brake' system though. Motorcyclists will tell you how much they wouldn't want it. 99% of those have never used it for a short or extended time. It's actually brilliant.

    Are you aware that there is biker's meet every Thursday evening by the Bargate TSS?, I walk through it on my way home from work at about 6:30.
    There are loads of motorcycles and scooters from vintage to modern.

    Yeah, I think it might be the local Motorcycle Action Group. [MAG].
