Thinking about that took me here - I don't think I've ever seen a Limeflower a Moggie

I am not a fan of the open intakes, but I can see the style choice.

The frame colour is described as 'concrete grey' by the seller, but the pics do show them with a greenish tinge, so maybe its the lighting?

Electric tray looks neat ( aside from the packet of bits gaffa taped in there... ) but the OCD in me would want to smooth off and paint in the heat sink fins where they have been chopped to clear the seat.
