Long long long long time ago, before the days of petrol power a little pinky was riding around on a CZ125 and when that died he got himself an RSX100 and then had to move away from NI and the bike was sold.
15 years later petrol had been invented and Pinky had returned to NI and, since a CBT was non existant at that time he bought himself a Lifan 125 Cruiser style heap of sh1t. He then moved back over to England taking his, now rusting, chinese heap of rubbish with him and then, just 2 years ago, went trough a DAS course.
A friend from an online game suggested I brought my Lifan up to him for his wife to learn to ride on after I passed and he would get his other bike, which was lying in the garden rotting, back on the road for me to borrow until I got myself my own ride.
So Pinky went up to Peterborough on this:
And let me tell you, the M25 is no place for a 125 that just about pushes 50mph as a top speed. The poor sod was overtaken by lorries and everything.
Pinky left Peterborough a short while later on this as his first big bike:
A 1991 gsxr750, last of the oil cooled slingshots, a classic in every sense of the word.
And low it was, Pinky was not overtaken on the way back by anything.
That bike was kept for around 6 months and I eventually got the Storm. As far as I know, the bike is still in Peterborough and still works so I didnt kill it to death. Not many people get a free classic sports bike to run about on for a while and I am gratefull to the guy that loaned me it, especially considering I had never met him before and we only knew each other from a game on disgracebook!
