The cable tie is on the handle bars for the all the wires from the brakes and such. Just went to have a look. There are none on the L plate at the front or back.

The helmet is a caberg 407.

The bike is alright, could do with having a higher top speed though.

The gear may not be necessary for that bike particularly but I bought it with safety in mind.

The gear has all removable thermals on the inside so it's been fine for me while I have been out on it.

However it has had one issue, which has been rectified. The main fuel tap wasn't working so I rang up the place I got it, and they said to take it over to them so they can sort it for me.

So the next morning I headed over and within half an hour it was sorted. Mind you, it was 15 minsbefore the mechanic even took it. So well done to him to for sorting it.
And the best thing is, 2 year warranty. FUCK YEAH.

Well those guys aren't protecting themselves properly. Not making a dig at them or anything like that, but they aren't. These clothes are made like they are for a reason. Wearing them is optional.
