just read in mcn that a guy has won a court cse to enable him to ride his bmw c1 without having to wear a crash helmet  :O

i imagine this will mean all c1 or similar type of bike riders will be allowed to ride without them?

i personally wouldnt be seen dead in one...a c1 that is!

I'm sure it was Conger, the accountant chappie who frequents RS got one as a loaner one day. He wasn't very impressed from what I can remember.

The Glasgow police have a few of the little buggers. Apparently the criminals can't run away for laughing at said vehicles and are easily apprehended.  ooh2.gif

I wouldn't like to ride one without a helmet though. Even with the seat belts, I'd expect there to be a lot of sideways movement of your head, if the thing fell over.

I told him that I would be happy to do so, but he wasn't prepared to pay for my time to prepare the report which would have taken some time, in other words he wanted it done for free.  Looks like he didn't need it anyway


OK, TC. What would have been your verdict? I can always weld a cage onto the Bandy... laughcont.gif

..........after all the C1 is really only a two wheeled car.

I thought all BMWs were!!!!  :D

Well no, actually mine is a four wheeled car!
