Hey all, just thought I would let you know that I got my new bike today! I absolutely love it!! I went all the way to the border of wales from twickenham (144 miles) to get it!! Had to ride it back and I didn't have much experience but only stalled it once so I'm well chuffed!!

Got used to the whole gear lark now aswell. My ped is old news!! Anyone want to buy a 1998 Peugeot speedfight X-Team Very HappyVery Happy?

By the way, it's a 1998 Honda NSR 125 RR, 3500 miles, MINT for £2000. I absolutely LOVE it!

I bought it off Shimmydude who uses these forums, and had to stay the night round his house because my train got so delayed! Was good fun Very Happy Thumbs Up

I can take pictures if any of you want to see it, just ask.

Ben

Same as your old one Baron just Orange and much less mileage Very Happy I will post up some pics soon.

Its not a bad little runner either. On the way back from Hereford I got it to 85 slip streaming behind some lorry. Otherwise it manages 80 on the flat but I think the wind may have been behind me Rolling Eyes Not bad considering it is completely restricted!

l would,nt belive the mileage for a 1998 unless it was really hardly used, bike speedo`s are easy to clock back the mileage and have seen NSR`s were it has been denfitny done by pervious owners.

Should do about 85 on the flat restricted anyway. Must've been some lorry!

Thinking of de-resticting it?

When I had my NSR I had no intention of de-resticting it, but then got sick of struggling to keep up on main roads when there was a few more bhp underneath you - all you gotta do is release it! You'd be surprised at the difference..........

Yea I am thinking of derestricting it, just not sure when I am going to get round to it. I want to wait till a nice sunny day, which doesn't seem to be too promising at the moment! Evil or Very Mad

Just the intake and exhaust isn't it? No, I'm not digging up another "How do i derestrict my NSR" thread I was merely asking just for the sake of it. Even though I know that the answer will be, "Yes, it has a restriction in the intake and the exhaust." I thought I would ask anyway Very Happy

I really should get some pictures up soon, once again, weather is to blame!

You won't be riding it for long if you keep that up mate!

Lorries don't do 85 MPH and if they were to brake, its bye bye BikerBen!

Especially with little experience.

Ride safely and enjoy Wink
