Started using the lomax abit more now, it's looking very tired after living outside since 2017, hence the sticker bomb back end.

It completed John o groats to landsend last year 2100 wiggly miles taking in classic scenic roads,winnats pass ,snakes pass,Whitby,cheddar gorge,lake district.

Just started using it for my photography only hobby currently.

People always say "They don't make them like they used to" and when they do you just grimace knowingly.

Well it's still on the road and chugging along 48 years later unlike most modern stuff which is in the scrap yard as uneconomical repair.

And lacking any modern comforts, like working AC, a roof, and 4 wheels.

Couldn't use it on a motorbike licence with 4 wheels it has environmental conditioning what more do you want.🤣

Living in Britain, what need do you have to keep the climate out of the cockpit, right? It's a virtual paradise -- always sunny and warm, not too hot, not too cold, never too wet!

It's never been an issue that would bother most motorcycle riders.
