Qbgrey 4,359 Posted March 3 Report Share Posted March 3 Those c 90s bring back memories, we stripped one right down, it looked cool, like a cafe racer lol. As kids we ragged in round the field , the throttle used to stick on , had many laughs letting my townie mates get on it. I came flat out round the house on it, speedway style, me mum was washing up, she just gave that mums look, kind of like ( you annoying little c**t) I flew past , throttle locked on, I tried pushing myself off the back before I went straight threw a blackthorn hedge, landed on the drive with thorns all over. Bloody painfull 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bloody painfull We nicked loads of them when we were kids and stripped them for round the fields and woods.Dont think I've ever had any other make of bike that could take the abuse that them things could.You just couldn't kill them.My old man always had drums of paraffin in the shed that he got from work.I used to nick it and mix it 50/50 with whatever petrol we could get our hands on and they'd run on it. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
