Any time dude. :-)

Seen today in Manchester, it's just post 97 but in lovely nick, and all in period - Race Guard, Crud Catcher and very nice X Lite bar ends.

Not being cheeky, I'll PM you :-)

It's probably good for me. :)

Re: 1996 Saracen Kili sorry, wrong post in wrong place. As you were. Oh very nice Saracen, btw...
