You must have been tempted by the 125 on fleabay now, only got 11 km's on the clock. Not an early one though, it's a 90's version.

I saw a family of four plus chickens on a yamaha YB100 in the Philippines.

At least you know it will run forever. I have a Jawa 250 Californian

here with the original tyres on it. I had it out one day in the wet and nearly came a guttser when I tried to turn the first corner. Good fun kind of

The more I look at this bike, the more I like it. Do it some justice Iain. I would much rather see one of these on the road than another bloody GS/CB/XS etc etc

Keep the pics coming fella
