That's the only thing spoiling the pic, if you look closely it's not an original one cos it hasnt got the stick shift gears. Stupid bloody health n safety rules :(

Yeah I looked at it on iPhone and you can zoom right it, you can see the name, I think the original choppers had higher back rest too, it is still a nice addition to the photo though and seeing as original choppers go for a small fortune now you can't blame the owner of the van for using a little bit of artistic licence :)
