Cheers Barney01 , think the first one is a bit out of my price range,the delivery alone is £25,
Might just go fir a £6 cheapy off eBay ,spent £6 on worse things

Cheers Mr B

I have read/heard that the cheapo ones are fine just never had one myself

Hi Barney01,if my renovation was going to be concourse I would probably buy a original one,unfortunately there's bits of chrome need doing here and there but it's really expensive over here that's if you can find one !!!,Got a quote once for the wheelie bar on my drag bike ,4 bars about the thickness of your finger at just over 2m in length,€1200 and 6 wks to do , the paint job looks ok to a blind man on a galloping horse but at the moment I just want to get her on the road ,not ridden or fired her up yet so might not be a keeper,she's a heavy old lump for my twiggy legs !!!!
Cheers Mr B

Yes i remember those days when i lived near Beziers. Everything so expensive and slow.

Still the same,thought life was slow down in the Limousin but up here in the bay of Mont Saint Michel it's ground to a halt

There's a thread from a few years ago about using the Chinese displays http://www.kettleclinic.co.uk/kcforum/v ... =11&t=3951
