    Oy! no thread hijacks!


    Yeah Spook, Jaffa cause it's got a crunchy orange shell.

    Although it's not looking very orange at the moment, cause it's still in the middle of a respray.

    Yeah it could be any of the 3LN series,
    it might help us if you have the right model on your profile if you ask any question's about your bike though
    There's 3 different set's of carby's with the 3LN series, 2 different front sprocket's, 2 different windscreen's etc etc
