    I want to start the next SECB rant. Why should I pay nearly three times as much road tax as 'er in doors?

    I demand protests, strikes, civil disobedience ...... :mad:

    Yeah mine Is 78 also and just got the reminder through the door, would think it should be a quarter the price at least as a bike is that much smaller than a car!

    This is the problem when buying second-hand. Always hard to find the correct model! lol

    The cooking and cleaning specification is perfect but, unless the bitching is an optional extra........
