yes went out tgis morning only doing about 5 mph, tapted the back brake and did a 360 the fell off ,, no damage to the bike or my self

[Pjam]

That's a great shot. One you'll look back at for years to come!

I've been a photographer for 20 years and I've always though lots of snow gives a picture a wonderful quality.


I've been out in the snow too, but It didn't look like THAT, and the whole time out there I was thinking 'how the xxxx did N & N do it?

Nice one mate,

Looks fun.....no snow for me yet though , maybe tomorrow they reckon.

Nice lookin' cub too, congrats.

Enjoy yourself.....

also nicely done Matt, 360 is no fun. (unless you stay upright)

Regards,
Shane.

Hey Boo,
Great pics, a hard working cub in action....is it just me or do you have a headlight cover on in the second pic?

Or is it something else?

Regards,
Shane.

P.S. thanks for clearing up the c90c frame questions that I had.

[aliengravy]

I want to go out in the snow now!! Stoppit you guys!! lol

headlight cover

Hiya Shane... it's not a cover in the second pic. It was a Lucas 5-3/4" sealed beam unit from a car, gaffer taped to the front of the CM90 chrome rim (it was much bigger, so stuck forward a long way - the original CM90 lamp was only 5" or so)
It was a bit of an experiment, to see if the generator in the chinese engine would power a bigger light.....
...which it did, and how! The last pic has the final result - a 6" VW polo lamp, with 60/55W halogen bulb (the sealed beam was 50/45 i think) Like daylight!

PS - Since then the Chinese engine has had mechanical problems, so I'm back to trusty 90cc Honda power, and the associated feeble 35 watts!

Excellent stuff, well done...great experiment
(I reckon it looks cool too)
Regards,
Shane
