Yes a ventriloquist on the radio :rolleyes ). That's where the confusion occured  . Obvious really :lol

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.

I had the GP100. [/quote] 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

I was looking at the new BMW GS1250, and I thought the 'GS' stood for 'Galton and Simpson'
