Excellent book about Michael Marriott and his wife riding overland from England to Oz on an NSU Prima scooter in the mid-50s. A fascinating insight into how far the world has moved since the immediate post-war decade, and yet in many ways has changed so little. You don't see many of these come up for sale, so it'll be worth grabbing a copy. Link is here.

Not got enough room in your glovebox? Need to access things like oil and camera rapidly. SIP have the answer with their new toolbox bags for the door of modern or PX Vespas or  Lambrettas with PX-style legshield gloveboxes. Priced at under £20 here and available in black or brown.

The nutcases at BSG love their billet engine cases. I've just ridden their latest smallframe weapon and it's a new definition of the term 'touring' I hadn't previously come across.
