I saw in the pic thread about your CBF :)

the CBF is anohter 'if I had the money' bike lol though I do prefer the Varadero.

One of my friends used to own a CBF though, he loved it :)

Must say, the Pegaso is growing on me alot and they seem to fall in my price range muahah

If the gearbox hadnt just died on the car...I'd be finding a way to fund one NOW rather than in 6 months grr

Well, local dealer here in Elgin, Willie Young motorcycles has an 03 Yamaha DTR125LC, he mentioned £1200 when I spoke to him on Saturday. Cracking 125 with plenty of go being a 2 stroke.
Too far for you to travel probably but does give you another choice! ;)

It certainly is Jim, and if I was in the market for a 125 I'd snap up that one on Ebay (earlier in this thread), it looks a great buy. I might just buy it and head on out (as a maverick) with the Van Van boys next year

Yeah the Vara 125 is what I really want, but not often do they fall into my budget and when they do they are quickly snapped up.

Same with the Derbi Terra, if I had the money I'd get the one on ebay

Realistically, it looks like the Pegaso is going to be what I'll pick up in a few months if there is one around as they seem to be going cheaper being older bikes.
