About 8% should do it.

They picked up two bikes from the KTM factory in Mattinghofen and got them to our shop in Preston before tea time the following day.

Not bad, even if you are in a Sprinter…

Looks that way. I’m not too sure long term. If they wanted to sell the petrolog side once then i’m sure they will look for another buyer. As for now they are stuck with it.

lad who has started for us worked there before out of widnes. dont think the money is too great but he said it wasnt a bad job sorry cant help you any more mate.
