Ahh I can see what happened there. You've been looking at the new Brough motorbikes and he worked with a Brough (Peter) on 'Educating Archie' (for those not in the know, a ventriloquist act on the radio. Yes a ventriloquist on the radio :rolleyes ). That's where the confusion occured ;) . Obvious really :lol

Busy day today with the usual pushing and shoving and bad manners , but i did get to see everything i wanted too , nortons were good but I would l go for the 961 , not to ride though , parked up in my sitting room :thumbup

Whats that little red 125?? suzi, I Had a GP125 in the mid 80s (2nd hand ) hat looked a little like that

The Fantic looks pretty smart. 42HP apparently, which isn't bad if you compare it with the new UK spec Honda CRF450L. That's only something like about 24 'ish :eek . Barely any different to the 250L.

It's not a 125, it's a GT250 X7. It's a twin. Your GP125 was a single. I had the GP100.

Ahh I see - you had the slow one. Heres mine, I saved up my wages from when I was 16 to 17 -17 being the age which you could ride a 125 back then.
MY buy list was an
RD 125 / KH 125/ GP125 as they were the fastest 2nd hand bikes in my price range at the time - in that order

Yeah. Also it was in desperate need of a rebore & o/s piston. I used to run it with the carb cover removed because drawing air through the filter assembly zapped all the power :lol .

No I've worked it out. I was looking at the new BMW GS1250, and I thought the 'GS' stood for 'Galton and Simpson' ;)
