Well I am pleased to report that I contacted my local friendly MOT tester in Renton and he was happy to fit the Daytona in for a once over so, jumped on and headed down there. She never missed a beat, Passed the test without a problem and no advisories. You are lucky with the weather @Public Enemy wet as feck in Southern Argyll and Dunbartonshire all day with strange little sections where it wasn't and didn't appear to have been raining, ,most odd.

The first two pictures are of Loch Lomond in the rain.

By the look of it, the dry bits were under the filling station canopy. 😏

I gotta admit that, if I was in the market for a 'custom' @MICK60 that looks like the kind of thing I'd want and those colours are superb. I do like a green, sparkly bike.
It's identical to one i had for 10yrs, but had to sell recently. Just got to get some WW's and a black leather bag on the back. Which i bought last week. planning to fit it on the Trident. Happy as a pig in shit mate.283423490_3292268901003992_6788852516055968793_n.jpg283363522_3292268887670660_8861957152731613857_n.jpg283423490_3292268901003992_6788852516055968793_n.jpg

I hope it does you good service @MICK60 like your last one. It is a good looking machine I think a bike like that would kill me on the twisties where I live myself though. Ever year (apart from the Covid shitstorm) the Scottish Harley Owners Group come to the holiday park across from my village and I am always amazed that they manage to get those big hogs down through the twisty single track, gravel strewn roads.

They are heavy mate. I did a tour of the South coast yrs ago. And it was scary when fully loaded with camping gear. That's why i built the trailer.13178863_981806611939863_5117375833099959363_n.jpg12771725_930001447120380_3849795639522146482_o.jpg32207667_1671930379594146_6206947965785866240_n.jpg

I just spent 3 hrs with my brother, fitting new, chrome twin headlights to my Trident. Thank fuck the boys got more patience than me. No photo's, because i cant upload them. Looking good, ready for the next mug to buy it though, Thank fuck my Nomad arrives tomorrow.

Screens without fairings always look weird to me from a design and image point of view. Is that thing see through or opaque @DD67

Definitely not my bag but then again a lot of folks seem to like the style
It's opaque & it's only there to add a bit of wind protection Marty.
Without a doubt the bike looks better without it. But without it fitted only roughly half the speed it's capable of is useable.
Swapping between the naked look & the practical high speed/long distance look will take less than 5 minutes.
The best of both worlds for under £14 & a couple of hours to modify it 🙂
