    Here is my brand new Zip SP :)

    It's a 2008 which has stod in a Danish shop for almost 5 years now.
    I have always had a weak spot for the Zip SP, and now that I finally have found this in Denmark, I bougth it.
    The import to Norway did go well also.
    It did set me back £1300, but what the hell it's my hobby.

    My plans are to upgrade the engine with a Stage6 Racing 70, Yasuni City 16 and better brakes on the font etc...

    nice zip i to have similar plans but i started with a mk1 zip with just 700 miles from new, can i ask why did you did not go with the stage 6 4 pot brakes, are the brakes you have fitted got 4 pistons and is that an oversized disc you have fitted and what did they cost compared to the stage 6 caliper and adapter bracket , who is petit pest i have never heard of him

    maybe you can heat it a little and just bend it to fit somehow?

    I have a side stand, but won't loose the main stand.
    Will have find a way to work around the problem later.

    You have to pay the 25% Norwegian VAT on any thing over £20.
    + a £20 fee to the post office for prepaying the VAT.
