Lostboy (below) says we don't get it. I guess it's not a 2021 bike then. :mrgreen:

JR says its a 2021 bike his You Tube channel and even how much it cost as he "ordered it himself" ..... small number in that colour though

Nice of Alpinestars to kit him out completely in a choice of road kit from 2 piece leathers to kevlar jeans and shortie boots ;)

Found the article in the Belfast Telegraph. It would have been a laugh if he'd failed and they had to erm 'do the publicity' with a 125.

(One of the mechanics at my local bike place never passed his test but was an absolute wiz on two wheels. I think he said 'What? Ride on the road? In all that traffic? Not bloody likely!).

I remember a certain Mr R Haslam appearing before the beak on a 'driving without a license' charge
I also remember a certain W J Dunlop being banned from the IOM open roads as well!
