Funnily enough I've just looked at that, I'm with you on "Hmmmmm..."

Don't spread it about or everyone will want one! I'm currently enjoying a never ending supply of cheap spares off eBay. The bike itself was only worth about £800 to start with. In my first three meetings the old banger has got me my first win, three 3rds, two 2nds, a 5th plus a few low placings in rookies and pre injections. No tuning, not even an air filter. Just well serviced brakes and standard susp was fettled by yorkie Chris. What else can you race for that money?
