the new "cleaner" rear end look





enforced change after the hugger / number plate unit parted company from the bike on a ride out today. The hugger is now residing in the food store of the cafe where I discovered it had detached itself when I reversed the bike out of its parking slot and promptly ran over it! Rode 80 miles home without a number plate Very Happy

Then a really ugly bike had the audacity to park next to my beauty Very Happy

OOPSS........

Had the same problem with a SB6 except the rear light is on he number plate holder so even though the carbon had broken free, it was being held on by the wiring for the rear light, the whole thing bouncing on the rear tyre. Shocked
20 miles from home, in the middle of the countryside, I had to accept the help of a local hop farmer and between us we managed to tie the whole holder onto the top of the tail piece with baling twine Rolling Eyes

A worrying 20 mile ride home.

Loving the MZ.......a super model compared to the Muntra, even the new look, fitter, leaner Muntra Laughing
