    Lol! Its a bit of path outside the house that goes nowhere so I utilise it for parking. Gets the car off the road 🙂

    You need to sort that rear number plate, it’s got a weird yellow smudge obscuring it.

    Pavement parker? Where’s my pitchfork.

    The bike looks like a hoot and a holler though. is it weighty?

    Looks a laugh though!

    What is a Mini Cooper 326?

    Interested to hear how you get on with it as I’m considering one myself. Looks good in the blue.

    Cables look weird from right hand shifter/brake lever, they seem to head straight down to the frame like you were having to take the shortest route rather than the neatest route or is that just the camera angle.

    326 is the torque after a remap on the SD?

    I prefer to put the capacity of the washer fluid bottle on the back of my car.

    Interesting choice to purposefully photo your bike next to your car but then blank out the number plate? Wouldn’t it be easier to take a photo of your bike when it’s not leaning against a car?

    Haven’t weighed it per se but it doesn’t feel much worse than my 456 tbh

    As fitted by PX – haven’t moved yet!

    Regarding the Mini, the 326 is the Ft/lbs torque figure post remap – 240bhp, 326Ft/lbs or 444Nm 😀
    As for the reg plate solamanda, the Mrs pointed that out and said It might be an idea to remove it!

    Brake and shifter angle is too steep, pedals should be level with drive side leading for photographs and taken against a relatively plain background, front wheel should be arranged fairly straight and a rearward or forward view tends to work best. Otherwise looks great.

    I love mine, had it 4 months and its my only MTB I have used since. Coped fine with Scottish trail centres, local woods, and long all day bridleway bashing, and the odd trip to the beach and winlatter in the snow.

    Is that remap only or have you had other upgrades to cope with extra torque etc…?

    Too late Oink1, she’s seen it. I’ve promised her I’ll get her a White one next time Planet X have a special on through Top Cash Back.

    Thats the remap, K&N and a little brake work. The thing flys and weighs about as much as a basket of soup! 😀
