Didnt you have a flat tyre the entire way and were pulling a wheelie for most of it?

I did Chelmsford to Cromer and back in a day on my old Aprilia AF1 (210 miles), many years ago - took me about a week to recover and stand up straight again



Must of burned a gallon of 2-T oil, and never was the same after that trip.

They were cheap and bullet proof. That's about the only good things you can say about the cg.
That said, I was sad to see mine go.
Paid £100 for it, made a profit a year later when the MOT had run out and the exhaust was falling off.
