Call from the new owner yesterday.

He's binned it.
:( Aww mate... and after all that work you put into it. Some people I dunno, they just don't know how stupid they are... didn't he realise the power of the Rappy?

Hey ho it's all a learning curve. You take care now and enjoy your next bike(s) :revrev:

I got a pretty bad feeling when I sold it that something stupid was going to happen, currently bike-less.

I am looking, but im not buying.. yet. I'll stick a post up when I buy something else. :happyhappy:

Just been in touch with our good friend Craig, whose project the above bike was. Seems he's really gone to the Dark Side, as his new steed is an evil-looking 2011 Kawa Z1000. :shock: Could hardly look more different from the basic Raptor thou he had! Anyway, it seems he's one of the NHS heros, so I told him not to be a stranger. Not that being a hero is a requirement to rock up to this madhouse! :thumbsup:

Nice... they did have a sharp, angular, radical look... you know that "Japanese fighting Manga style".

Splendid motor mind with lots of grunt 81 ft/lb with 136 bhp - so not totally different.
