Err i went through the moped stage from 16 - 17 ish but the speed soon wears off lol...
Was going to get a 125 before i did my car test because i still have sometime left on CBT but i think i will pass car test then do full bike 1 now because i love being on bikes.
I was considering a bike at the end of summer, at my grand old age I could have gone into getting a decent thing straight off and not have to sit on a can full of angry bees for a few years. But then thought well, I like having a roof over my head, a stereo, room for the shopping and not having to lay down when I go round a corner lol
Much much cheaper than a car though. And more fun :D
That bike does remind me of Kickstand... anybody else remember that?
When i was slightly younger there was three of us and at least one of us would always have a crosser as at single time. Namely KX 125's my mate same had a KX 250 for a short while. Lovely bike that was, anodised purplue frame with green plastics. Another kid had a DT 125 and that thing bloody flew. I also had some really old black crosser, damn thing must have been on it's orginal tyres coz they looked like slicks!!!lol
Was good fun, doubt you could get away with ragging them down the woods, farmers fields now tho:roll:
You bike looks good, once my money settles down i'll probally get another 125/250 but for the road this time.:D
