Mrs V-Strom's Scooter
« on: August 27, 2008, 15:26:44 »
Mrs V-Strom's maiden voyage on her little 125cc Scoot didn't go as planned and she ended up in a hedge  :shock:

Anyway, rather than replace the plastics (even though they are cheap as chips) I thought I would get my hands dirty.. It came out surprisingly well...
