When its done it will be used for on the back of the Bugilow to replace the Honda XL 200 , for when we go to the Isle of Man TT and latter on at the Manx GP so that I can go off marshaling and leve the wife where ever she whants to be and then I can have a play on the Lanes over there , when at home it is just a case of as the mood takes me bit of stress relief , and have found that I enjoy boming about on the little bikes just as much as going out on the big bike just for me it is getting to know just what the lanes you are going on are like some can be a bit on the rough side if you are on your own and as yet I dont have any one to ride with , Poor billy no mates , intend to see how the DT goes when I get it done and then if I like it and things seem ok I will see if there is any TRF riders round here to teach me the ropes ,but by what I have done on the XL think I should love it , cant wait

Now I don't have a car anymore, college or work everyday, and some pretty serious off roading at least a few times a week, probably why it's always broken lol. Tbh it's much better suited for off roading, coming back down the M3 last night scared the **** out of me lol.

You take it on the Motorway! Now that's brave. I've only done that once. And that was when I bought it. And by Accident. Coming home from Bristol to Gloucestershire down the motorway.

hahaha nothing like it on the M6 as much as i loved it overtaking other cars made me feel like a speed demom lol.. but i use mine for getting to work and also for popping in town but if with mates or going out for a drink then il leave it at home and kiss my baby goodbye as it sits there wishing it could come with me.

i use this one for off road fun....

and for walking the dog...at 80mph biggrin but its also a test bed for my resto project,startin with this....

copied from the MA tuning pic (still need to reshape the exhaust port and widen the transfer inlets,doin them one at a time to feel wot each does) so far its quicker revving and revs harder... once thats sorted i'll try the carb...

get to try it all out on the local track instead of the roads in case it breaks no

 I only did it that once, it's only one junction down the M3 from where I work and I wanted to see how fast it went lol, only 70 though :(

Did think it was a bad idea when I realised it was an unlit section and the dt lights are awful lol.

Doing 60 when everyone else is doing about 80 at night with **** lights is scary lol. Rode all the way down to cornwall on motorways on my 400, don't like not being able to keep up with traffic though.

Lol. So whats the speed limit there ?. i can ride my dt in about 75 mph witouth troubble. But when it comes to 80-90 mph i never keep that speed for a long time xD. But i feel pretty safe at 75 mph.

Whats the speed limit there ? The highest speed limit in norway is 60 mph i think. And i think theres only place in the whole country wich has that speed limit. Our normal highway is 55 mph speed limit. and our normal speed limit is 50 mph
