Suzuki RV 125

Do any of you remember these. Its a Suzuki RV125 back from the 1970's. They are still being made but are rather different now.
I know a person who had one and he once let me have a go on it. He used to use it off road and at the time I was about 13 and I found it a very easy bike to ride. I cant remember the last time i see one this old. I think the TS was much more popular
The new models feature a 4 stroke engine unlike the older 2 stroke models.

Only brand new bike i have ever owned was the modern RV125 VANVAN, bought it Sept 1st 2007 on shiny new 57 plate, the first of the model with fuel injection...and it was a gorgeous thing to ride....uber-comfy, will find a pic later on and post it :) Sadly the bike had to go early 2009 to relieve some cash troubles :x

I'd recommend one to anybody, and would happily own another if one showed at the right price

reminds me very much, of going the KERZAL in southend. early 70's was an amusment part, and had a bike track, were for 50p a shot you could ride a motorcycle.rpound a cinder track. :twisted: many a time, i lifted brothers and sisters lunch money, to train there, ride all day, and train home, before the old man got home to catch me bunking of school.
most of my mates all learned to ride there too,
though i think the bikes were mostly fantic and italjets, but the suzi looks so farmilr. perhaps they had them for older lads.
