13BT_KE20 Posted March 21, 2010 Author Report Posted March 21, 2010 Lookin' good! Now, when do I get my first ride in this thing? :P Can you get fuel cells that would be the same width and height as the factory tank, yet deeper, so you can retain some form of boot space? haha soon mick you can buy the cells in just about any shape/size. Just jump onto the ROCKET website and have a look who needs boot space anyway :jamie: Quote
Raven Posted March 22, 2010 Report Posted March 22, 2010 Ah, we deal with Rocket at work :P Could get it nice and cheap then :jamie: Quote
