Damn......that box looks good! You could carry a Romanian around with you in the top box … wearing his multi coloured jumper and shell tracksuit bottoms his bucket of water and squeegee and he could jump out and clean your bike when ever you stop 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found a Shad video for this model....... .......and off it came! And I managed to get it back on again! Watching that has reminded me of my aged friend Ted who likes a SHAD top box too. He has had the lid fly open multiple times. I think it is easy to think you have locked it properly when you haven't. It may just be a pensioner thing though, I've chased him a few time hooting or shouting, but the silly sod just waves and carries on riding with all his stuff falling out the flapping lid. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She wouldn't look in our direction, then I saw her saying something to Jake. He then turned round and shouted "We're not going with you".......and they all carried on. So she's manipulating them to get at us......you can't sink any lower than that. I've been through it 40 years ago with the first wife so it's not a situation I'm unfamiliar with.

So if someone turned up with a filthy bike would it be too much? Would I (just for example) be doing you a favour by letting you clean it? 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
