That's certainly a move in the right direction JR. Much friendlier on the figure 8s I bet.

It definitely is for sure, only problem so far I've had is a fecked inner tube due to potholes on the industrial estate that I work in :(

Was due to go in for its service on the 22nd, but the mechanic had to self isolate so its still awaiting it (want to keep the warranty intact), and now with the mechanics place being in tier 4 and halton being in tier 3, it looks like the service is going to have to wait.

Its currently sat with a decent cover on and coated with ACF50 whilst I'm working from home though.

Perhaps it may make an appearance at 3 sisters if the events still go ahead next year.

I love the look of these Hanways, nearly bought a salvaged one from Copart last summer but couldn't get registered in time (was only paint damaged) well crafted bikes IMHO, don't really need ewt more for where we live, love the model you have too, rode the scrambler type and although great the knobbly tyres made my junk numb

Unfortunately the bike no longer looks like that, as per my post in general it was stolen nearly 2 weeks ago this week.

It has been found but its not worth claiming on the insurance for as the excess is £1150 on a £1750 bike.

From seeing it in the flesh and knowing that you are unable to get major parts for it (snapped frame underneath the engine & subframe) it now looks like this.
