traileys are definitely for you mate, i had a honda paris dakar xl250 once, couldn't have had more then 20bhp drum brakes super uncomfortable seat (redone with too soft foam) loads of fun, bound to be loads of 350-400 thumpers about that are easy to throw about. www.donedeal.ie/for-sale/motorbikes/1586261

tough one, rs125 is certainly quite fast and hugely enjoyable but also the razor sharp handling is not so friendly. Lot's of easy going 400cc trail/thumpers about that are excellent at just about everything, what type of bike do you most like? saw a aprilia red rose the other day in the local ads, rs125 engine in a crusier? bonkers.

try searching up bucket racers from NZ, although the regs allow them to have 150cc four strokes they are pretty much the only people in the world who competively tune/race tiny 125's
millions of pounds and an army of techs with computers at f1 level can net 300bhp pre litre from a four stroke. most production 125cc two strokes make that as standard. Fit a softy tuned two stroke more power more reliably definitely cheaper.

the bolts at the bottom, they the really big ones that are allen headed and usually quite filled in with dirt hidden about where the axle is installed? If your looking to straighten em you don't have to take them apart, Also there is a clip at the top of the legs that holds in the seal, needs to come out.

Remember when rossi and burgess first joined yamaha? epic first season with an ill handling under powered m1. he won that season didn't he? haven't watched in a while, but i believe the ducati has some handling issues and a powerful motor. GOOD move, i love it when rossi proves its the rider and not the machine, utterly destroying any illusion the opposition might have that rossi's bike is better...

also how the heck did it get 225 views? only started a few mins ago. know very little about the value of vespa's but if it has lasted since 1972 it's gotta be worth something.
