As you might have noticed by the pics went to Brighton today to view the sports mopeds ...

All in all i counted about 100 bikes which included other sports mopeds of the 70's and a few other older bikes as well as a few rather interesting variations on the theme !!!

If you want me to post more pics ... i'll sort a few out

The wee Suzy topped out at 55mph while my mate buzzed along behind on his much smarter looking Kawa AR 50 at 31 mph LMAO -- Adz. Bandit 1216 wi loads of goodies on it, my pride n joy !

One had an 'R' Reg Blue AP50 which was faster than a fizzy and had a sensible gear arrangement ... ie 1 down 4 up as oppossed to the mental 4 down of the FS1-E My other mate had a brownish gold ??? coloured KTM Comet Cross on an 'L' plate if i remember rightly. -- Martin :o)
