Looks nice and straight, a very good platform I'd say. I like your SA but that syncro would the keeper for me. I am half tempted myself. go...

Re: Starter Battery Solar Trickle Chargers - Waste of Money?

Re: Starter Battery Solar Trickle Chargers - Waste of Money?

not sure how well it would do on the T25 though.
