Bike 9 Yamaha DT 175, My only dieveeation from Honda, which was a mistake, I wanted a Honda XL185, (one on ebay aththe moment X plate for £700
) same style as the Yamaha. It was a 2 stroke, done 35 mpg and was a pig to start because of low compression. It was a bucket basicaly, I made it look good but mechanicaly it was rubbish, needed an engine rebuild...............A minor fall of it (Throttle stuck, Dumped me on the road and done a fantastic wheely rider free ) and that was it, I decided no more bikes, next came the mini after having to walk for a year.
Bike 10 Honda Vigor 650, thats what I have today, Beautiful looking in yellow (Have since sprayed the side panels and front mudguard) Got it 2 years ago, still not managed to do the test, but not bothered. If and when I go back to Ireland the test is much easier there still.
