Not weaving, but yeah, I was getting scared on corners on the A272 which I first started along to get home. I did think it might fall over as the width isn't that wide.

The width is 4ft exactly from the outside edge of each tyre.

Maybe it's fine and I was just being paranoid though? Especially since I bought the trailer off ebay and picked it up 2 hours before picking up the MT!

It was strapped up really tight, it felt just like a part of the trailer when it was on, rock solid.


And mtt.tr, haha, yeah I rotorvated my garden as well earlier!.. See here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezFzH0FvfYM" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Please excuse my bald head, lol :lol:

Well, it failed the MOT on 2 points :(

The first was "Rear wheel spindle securing nut locking device missing" (A split pin :lol: )

And the second I was hoping to get away with ;) "Exhaust is leaking and excessively noisey" which Bunker told me about before I bought it.

It's not all bad though - I got to ride the bike through some lovely countryside to the MOT station! :D :D :D AND I LOVE IT! Definately want to put a bigger engine in at some point though, lol :lol: I got 10 days to fix and take back for a free restest as well.
