New Bike

Ace Modder · 19 Mar 2006 at 15:25

Hey guys.

Just been to pickup my new bike today, so far it's done 7miles.

It's a Kymco 125cc People

I have got 70mph out of it, you have to try it, don't ya.

What do you think?

Didn't you get a new one a few months ago?

*n

I bought one which was 2 years old, and that got stolen from a hospital car park, when visiting! So I thought bugger it, I will go and buy a new one, and have spent £300 on a phat chain and lock and also fitted an alarm and a tracking system!
I don't want my new £1900 bike stolen again!

don't really like the look of it but whatever floats your boat.

Bike? a foot forward bike or a scooter? Bet you look gayer than a meatball riding it lol, unless your not old enough for a proper bike then i suppose they are cool

£1900? RRP is less than that

You paid £1900 to ride that thing? You're braver than I thought.

Not my thing, but if you just want transport.......no, I still can't see why, sorry

looks ok i think, is it 4 stroke?

Ace Modder · 19 Mar 2006 at 16:39

4 stroke it is! and its unbelievably light, so the acceleration is brill.

I have tried to see what it could do, then slowed back down. And sorry for calling it a bike, just used to calling it that cos of my son! he calls it a bike, easier than explaining to a 2 year old
