Re: How many of you own a second bike?

Hi all
I own two RT's
One is a 2006 oil head and the other is a 2016 Iconic LC
I also own a GP200 Lambretta Scooter (no jokes please)


The 2006 R T has soon got to go as storage is a major problem 😩😭

Re: Working on a active break-light for the top box

I'm interested, I'm already looking at installing the http://www.skenedesign.com/lights/ST_Features.shtml units
Can't see an issue with British Law, I have spoken to our Local Police and they are happy as long as I have a fully functioning Breaklight as well

Re: OEM Top Box for 2015 RT
