    Shes called hyacynth.
    Shes old, crotchety, tempremental, unreliable and moody, but just like an infirm elderly relative I'm stuck with her :lol:

    On the odd occasion that she hasn't gone back to bed after starting, she can still lift her skirt and pin you to the seat when she takes off :D

    Do you use it for any events or just a giggle?

    I've used her for hillcimbs and shes sorted for rallies, but time constraints mean it might just be hills and maybe track days next year.
    Shes actually in gravel spec ( always has been ) no anti roll bars and 5" wide springs.

    Yup, the BDT was originally developed for the RS1700T, then (iirc) they stuck it in the RS200, which they then developed into the BDTE, 2100cc pushing 650bhp in race trim!

    Oh, and nice Cossie by the way. Take a look at www.cfciom.org too :wink:
