FINALLY! Three months late, but it's live at last.
Don't know how many of you saw the old one (which was reet poor), but this new one is a vast improvement.

Very tidy!
But can I make - I hope - a constructive criticism? The first thing I noticed was the purple menu on the left - that colour is very distracting from the content of the page!

Much better
Agree on the purple...
And hanna's bike features and mine doesn't? Before and after on mine would be far cooler lol

Yes, looking a lot sharper.
Agree on the purple (it needs to go). If it was me I'd continue the green theme from the main banner.

Like the new site
The green and faded purple does look like 1980's shellsuit, but i like it when you roll over the buttons and it turns nice bright blue.. you need something to turn the mouse pointer into a sponge.....

The lack of a Falco or Aprilia of any kind on the front page is unforgivable .... apart from that it's good.

The purple I wanted was deeper than that, and the green brighter, but I guess the Pantones I initially picked didn't translate to RGB very well and the menu colour it the closest the template could offer. Ain't complaining though, I like it and it's so far cost me a box of Maltesers and two bike valets!
Will try and get more Falcos on it

Can I just say as a spokesman for my dear ol' elderly father with all his classic bikes, he'd shit a brick at your website!
The website in general is great but the classic bit should perhaps link to a clearer and easier site? ahemmm that doesn't mean I think all classic bike owners are ooolderrr ;)
I know my old man has a far greater interest in 'older' than new bikes far more than he does trying to work out a website, so I can only assume many ol' critters are the same.... ask Samray hahaha
The easier the site to navigate the better for certain ages????

Classic bit?? You've lost me there. We on about the same website?
