    The demographics each was aimed at are totally different. Hinckley, elderly born again wanting a easy riding no hassles bike for weekend excursions to a local cafe. Meriden was aimed at the young hoon wanting a socially irresponsible speed machine for unsafe fanging round the North Circular. It's inevitable that the design briefs will be quite different. And the person who likes one won't like the other. I prefer Meriden myself but that's just me. One day when I'm old I'll probably change my mind

    Psst... You are old...

    Nup! That's why you have to do it yourself. Good news is that you now have a reliable modern engine to put in it!
    You don't get to be an old dog without learning a few tricks.
    Shorai Powersports batteries are very trick!

    Because of Governments, statutes and the majority of consumer's desire for practical, utility vehicles.
