Believe it or not, Rap, I saw two 'chopped' scooters a few weeks back at a convention in Whitby! I wasn't at the convention I hasten to add - just happend to co-incide. The rockers of my day would have died of laughter and the mods wouldn't have even dreamed of such an un-mod thing to do:-D

Have a look at this if you want to see something realy weired. It loads an index so just do a 'search this page' for 'chopper'. For a musical slant I don't think either James or Red Molly would have approved. Your redhead wasn't called Molly by any chance? Nah, could't be. You wouldn't do that to a Vincent 55:-)

And, yes Fran, I will use my luminous green springy thing as soon as I can find it...

Cheers
