For those who didn't see this program last night. It shows an advert made in 1968 using minor (KPG 101C)

11 minutes in if you don't want to watch it all

I couldn't sleep last night after seeing that :o , poor minor.

Ahh the good old 'Clunk Click Every Trip' adverts with Jimmy Saville I remember those well.

I also remember passing my motorcycle test on a Lambretta 150 LD sans crash helmet and being licensed to ride a 1000cc motorbike after a cursory 1/2 mile solo trip twice around a block of houses back in 1966

I still have the motorcycle groups on my licence but have never ever felt the want or need to use them on a 2 wheeled rocket, but it did allow me to by a 'Trotter Mobile' (Reliant Regal Van) in the early 70's and drive it around fully licensed as my motor cycle licence covers tricycles

Happy days guys 8)

:(
sadly, i know this all to well -- at least in this accident, both vehicles were of similar weights...
really hits home seeing something like this - and i think it shoiuld be taken as a message of warning to all of us
