Hi guys and girls, After 6 weeks of waiting for the cogs to turn far enough for the DVLA to spit out a new provisional licence and send it via second-class post to me, I was finally able to take my CBT, insure and tax my bike and get it on the road yesterday! I've done close to 100 miles on it today, drove into London went for a little toot around and then blatted back down the A316 to Weybridge... found out that my beast of a 125 Drag refuses to go faster than 55mph, but then at 6'3 and 17st I'm not the lightest or most aerodynamic of lumps for it to shift. Been great so far, just wanted to let everyone know that I'm very happy I chose to free myself from publi…

Just a suggestion so 'flame me if you will', as it seems that a lot of new members join up all the time, and by far most are polite/friendly enough to make an 'intro' either as an intro or as part of their first post (which is usually a 'fix-it question), would it not be possible to make the existing FAQ section into a 'New members' section, and, incorporate the FAQ's as a sticky 'inside' this new titled section ? as a noob must have a look at the main page 'looking for the door' and not see one ?

Good afternoon everyone. My dad owns a barely used, but soundly running, 1977 R-reg Yamaha DT100 in good nick, which he is thinking of selling via my Flea-bay account. Would anyone have any experience on what sort of prices it could possibly go for, or a reserve price I should consider? I appreciate that's quite an open question so I don't expect any exact answers, but I have looked on ebay and autotrader finding that most DTs are the latter 175 or 250's. Mods/Admin - this is not a 'for sale' topic, I'm just trying to get an idea if it's worth selling or not thats all. Cheers John
