'Slider'. . .

 Here it is, this is Mk I version. At this stage there is still a leaky brake cylinder so 'D', the test pilot, will have to either wear out his boots or crash into a wall to stop. . .
 It's not very often that you see 'D' really having fun, but by the look of the grin on his face, this thing is off it rocker. . .
 Just point the front wheel and the arse end heads off in that direction, this critter is insane. . .
The wrong sized poly pipe has the rear wheels out of shape and shaking the shit out of everything, including the goose neck and handle bars. It got to the stage that turning the wheel madeno difference, it just went where it wanted to go. Half a dozen phone calls later and two new pieces of large internal diameter poly pipe were fitted and Mk II is now a sweet thing. It goes like a came that's just been shot in the balls and handling the slides is "Easy as.", according to 'D'. Check your wallets folks, these things are ready to fly out the door with orders coming in already . . .
