    Nice! My one of my mates used to have a really clean Tdr125 in the bright blue/turquoise colour he wanted £900 off me for it when he parted with t and to this day i regret not getting it, lovely looking and as you say reliable bikes. Not as fun as the Giva mind although as you say he had it about a year and it never skipped abeat once. Admittedly i was a noob to two strokes and mechanical sympathy when i used to ride the Mito alot which is more then likely why i always had it in bits 😛

      I had one of those - big and quite heavy with an awful cat in the exhaust. Not sure what they are like with a decent exhaust mind you. Hopefully my Belgarda TDR will be quicker that the Japanese version

        Really fancy a Super-City myself but have the TDR now and prefer the Yamaha reliability over the Cagiva's.

        Built an RS 125 a good few years ago. Even standard full power with 34mm carb they make a really good sportsbike and one that you can have plenty of fun riding even with a full licence.

        TBH I probably preferred the RS to my old RGV250

          @nottsbiker Really? That's surprising.

          I would love an RGV250 😄

          @calum only because I was always waiting for the Suzuki power valves to drop into the cylinders and cause the engine to go pop

            My rgv250 was a animal i find hard to believe a rs125 would come anywhere close to it

              The holy grail would be the RS250, RGV 250 lump in a proper modern frame with good brakes and suspension. Serious weapon that

                @finnerz89 RS250 Used the RGV250 engine as standard...

                      I've owned TL1000S, 996, Tuono 1000 etc so I know what animal bikes are like to ride 😉

                      RS125 was just a really nice small capacity sportsbike that's what I was getting at. Obviously an RGV will be quicker, but sometimes there's more fun in maxing a tiddler 🙂
