dont ask me about scooters, most of the owners of scooters around here drive about hooting at each other @ 30mph with neons & track suits!

This is my runabout till i turn 17

http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h80/x_novadose_x/DSC01906.jpg

I didnt want a "scooter" because their mainly branded as "asbos on wheels" round here, plus im 6ft 2" so needed a bigger bike

Its a 1999 Suzuki TS50, 50cc with a 70cc bore kit (declared by the way) and a straigh through exhaust system (can hear it coming from atleast 2 mile away, no joke) its a cracking little bike and is by far the most reliable out of all my mates and mine, i paid £480 for it and their going at the moment for £600+, so im sure ill get my money back on it. :thumb:

lol Sounds like a recipe for disaster!

I've been looking into Yamaha YZF-R125s as a commuting tool once I've bought somewhere I can keep it securely!

i used to have a aprilia SR, stealh edition (Black, with silver details). mollosi clutch and vario, NRX axhaust. did about 100km/h.

nothing beats a Honda MT5 with a 110 mallosi and proma exhaust!

it is, its not like that in the UK?

since the new laws its gone down tbh.. no kid fits a 70cc anymore :(
we where the last generation with the old laws..

we are not allowed to make them go faster, but when you get gaught, the do a dyno run testing KiloWatts, and the outcome of that determans the fine. mostly about 200-400 euro for the faster boys.

new law is 2 strikes and the crush it.

aprillia rs125 or cagiva's are the or one of the quickest 125's around iirc
and they is one on youtube on a yamaha bws (mbk blaster) doing 125kph on the back wheel down the duel carridgway untill he gets caught by the coppers lol
