Slowly but surely we will all get the bike of our dreams, unless its a Desmodecidi which are should we say something of a rarity! The Honda is a great bike, but sometimes bikes are so perfect they're no fun. I like a bike that has an unforgiving side to it which makes for a bit of a challenge. I'm running around a knackered Kwak GPZ500S, shes gone through three winters now so shes starting to rust away poor thing. Joining the RAF at the end of the year so I think its going to be a wee while before I've got the keys to that Daytona. Thinking of getting it in black with the extra union flag paint job on the front, looks the mutts nuts!
I've loved Daytona's, ever since the stealth fighter 650 won the TT in 2003 (I believe? I stand to be corrected on that).
AJ are you a full license holder, or are you still on L plates? If so I'd get down to a test centre ASAP before the blessed government makes it even harder to get a license!
Oh, I doubt your lil' 125 will be causing the cops to go mental, but watch horse boxes in North Wales. Brunstrom in all his bloody crazy wisdom has started a new craze in which the ol' bill will park empty horse boxes on the side of the road and put a copper with a Gatso in it... just be aware!
Thats a lovely 125 by the way, I had a TZR50 yam in blue, without the front fairing I had a universal light fairing on the front 'cos the first owner dropped it and would have cost too much in fairings and stickers to replace so we ripped it off!
