What has me curious, and a little alarmed, is the meta data readings for core body temperature - where does the probe for that go?
Yeah, i bit like nit picking eh?The make was Reliant and the model
was the Robin, bit like calling it the corsa vauxhall.

No mate, just explaining smokin joes post, he was taking the Mickey by asking what a robin reliant was (because you had them the wrong way round) but you totally missed that and posted pics. Just helping out! :-)
Before the mickey taking goes too far, many people referred to (and still refer to) them as Robin Reliant, whether it was right or not. Several cars of that era were colloquially named that way, I think of E-Type Jag as easily as I do Jaguar E-Type and very few will talk about the Rover Land or Rover Range.
We used to call them plastic pigs back in the day. Then there was the bond bug.I remember when we were children there was a bloke who had a Robin Reliant, or "plastic rockets" as they were fondly called. He only went and put loads of NASA/Apollo 13 stickers all over the thing. I suppose he was happy in his own little world thinking that he was Neil Armstrong. Well now whoever buys this 25 grand bike can pretend that they're James Bond!!!
Oops!,i'll just swap that Apollo 13 for an 11.The one Neil Armstrong travelled in.
One of my neighbours thinks anyone who spends more than £200 on a bike needs their heads testing.
