Information: My first bike! Well, scooter. I bought this brand new in 2004, did my CBT, and rode it around. After a few months the engine bearings and the head went, causing it to sieze big time. It was fixed under warantee, and after another problem with a leaky cylinder head, it was running sweet. I bought a leovince ZX exhaust for it, and derestricted it for the start of summer. I also fitted a polini variator to it, for a smooter acceleration curve. It was the fastest scoot in school, topped out at a true 55mph. It required a lot of maintainence though, it´s had new reed valves, lots of sets of rollers, a new drive belt, and the list goes on. Unfortunatley, the day before I was due to sell it, I crashed it on a roundabout, and bent the forks. I vaugely remember it sliding along beside me, before it and myself mounted a curb. It´s been fixed in the shed though, and will now be donated to my little brother in a year or two, and used as my winter hack in the meantime.
