Yes, I looked into your suggestions and found that £55 one a bit of a joke too, but thanks all the same.
I agree, the Honda's are just a bike, like any other.
The numbers aren't big (UK imported much less than 2000, the USA got about the same number of GB's, half of which finished up in Germany). The DVLA recons there are less than 400 left on their books.
I don't mind sensible mods. Never one to throw money at a Money Monster.
