Dom1878 Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Hi I steamed straight in with a question and never introduced myself. Thanks for the feedback on the tyres btw. So I used to ride up until 12 years ago when I had a big off in the Isle of Wight. Used to be a bit of a scooter boy and folded my Vespa P200 into the drivers door of a VW Passat - his fault - and between that and moving around for work, I never got back on. Roll on the years and I'm finally back on two wheels again and loving it. Managed to pick up a 2003 125 Dragstar with 4500 miles on it for £1100 so was made up. Had her imported from Northern Ireland by a guy called Phil from Acceleration. If you ever need a bike shipped, this guy is spot on, I'll forward his details. Looking to move up to a 650 or bigger in the future but want to get a year or so of riding back under my belt to iron out any old bad habits and the 125 does all I need. Will probably keep her regardless. I'm also a drummer and have toured UK and Europe over the years, you can find some recent noises here: https://soundcloud.com/bifteck-1 https://soundcloud.com/bundleofid/charlotte-charlatan https://www.facebook.com/bifteckuk Looking forward to posting further inquiries which are probably simple but I'm a shit mechanic, thanks for checking in. Cheers Dom (PS - On the look out for some leather/TEK panniers if there is a good site?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
