Who remembers the original sports moped era '75-76-77, the best days of my life bar none? Fantic Caberlaro, Fantic Chopper FS1E Yamaha, Honda SS50, Suzuki AP50 Cross Derbi, Gilera, Ital-Jet, Puch and much more! Happy days Jasper Carrots funky moped "lollol.
Effervescent! ha ha! I waited until I was 17 years old and I bought a big bike, OK, it was a 1960 Matchless 650 * to piss of all by a Jap 350, but hey! I can take passengers on L plates I had a car equipped with side and when I passed my test, I had a big motorcycle.
But yes all my friends had little buzz boxes to play with.
Fantic Chopper! I saw the Hells Angels, the real, in east London pulled up next to a child on one of these, they just have him with the bike and he laughed it ** ** s off. I think that the child believed himself in a bit of Hassel of them, but ends rather embarrassed as they roared away leaving his chopper little putt putt in a cloud of exhaust.
great days, great days.
The Internet can do??
Of course, I remember. My mom will not let me fix my bike in the house, so I had to fix it in the Garding.
I remember the 40s.
We all remember our youth and our first "wheels" as the best days of our life;)
No travel restrictions for new fans where I live: first bike was a Honda cb400f yellow back in the late 70 s. I still own, too = D
Yes, 16 years had a fsie yam. then 17, Honda 250, has passed the test and moved to 380 on a Suzuki. before bowing down to my mom and buying a mini, ahhhh those were the days
Ah, yes. Puch Maxi.
children of my brother is still running this engine in a go-kart.
I remember those days. Piss potty two shots seemed to be what they were not. Fist engines screaming like riders companies Banshees, flat on the tank ........... be adopted by Morris 1800, towing caravans! Rose tinted glasses mate.
What a wonderful time! Yes I had a GT4v Derbi 50. It was probably the slowest sports moped on the block with a maximum speed of 35 mph ......... morose
I bought it because Derbi were at the top of the tree when he was racing 50cc .... Boy was I disappointed when I was at an age where speed mattered lol ......
Slow it may have been compared to FSIEs ", etc., but it took me everywhere and never let me down. I would like he had.
72P KPO are you still there?
