Title: 2001 50c COF - Hard pressed to explain?
Post by: Unicorn on June 17, 2015, 06:38:17 PM

This one is a little odd, it's obviously been caused by the back of another COF 50c being driven into it, but what has me curious is the clarity of the lettering and the lack of any other evidence of a collision?

What sort of pressure would have been required to do this?

So basically the impression appears to be that as highlighted in the third pic.
