I remember seeing one in Torre Motorcycles while I walked to school and dreamed of one every day for months.

I bought one of these for £8. I did sell it for £16....I was a bit poor.

My first bike was a Suzuki AP50 moped.

That was back in the days when a moped was a moped (i.e. motor + pedals) & could do 50mph. :)
60mph down hill flat on the tank. :shock: :lol:

Ahh.... happy memories. :roll:

My first was a Cagiva River 600, swapped it for a very old laptop!! it did not start it "just needed a replacement startermotor" But after getting one it still did not start. Stuck it on ebay for spares and got £400 for it, still to this day the best deal I had ever done.

Oh and the £400 then bought me this baby which I learned to ride on :wink:
