Couple of piccies of my spawn of satan attached

I love the smell & the power delivery of 2-smokes, but as already mentioned, the 250 thumpers are by far easier to ride.

Go for it TP. So long as you don't buy a new bike, you'll be able to sell it on for a similar amount if you have a change of heart.
