Iv'e been skinning my knuckles getting these two running again. Bought them over 20 yrs ago for my kids and been sat in my mums garage for over 15 yrs so I thought I'd bring them over and use them to herd goats and for walking the dog after coming home from the fiestas like a zombie. I've also got a spare engine for the TDM that I'm attempting to "blueprint", but after swopping over a couple of sockets on a ratchet, I'm already dripping in sweat so I'll leave that for a bit. And then it'll be too cold... ::)

tecks me back i used to run a Honda  Chalet ,think it was 70 or 90 cc what was a hoot bobing in /out of city center traffic lol
