Well, I wanted to travel at a slightly higher speed, so I bought a ST70, my lady.
That time, we just bought our home, and need money and space for the renovation.
So... Brownie had to go... :cry:

Here's the bike from my partner in crime.
It's a fully original 50cc MOTORbike from Switserland (rare!)
Engine is my previous owned Tuned C70, 4 gear manual clutch.
Frame and stickers will stay the way they are. 8-)

Lovely looking bike!

Your girlfriend rides too? Awesome!

I wish my girlfriend was into motorbikes. She dislikes all my hobbies with a passion... :( :lol:

Hi Guys
I appear to be very lucky my other half humours me about my hobbies otherwise I would not be able to work on my Lady in the dining room.A question for Waynus are manual clutches the norm in europe as against auto's as most of the pictures refer to manuals.
Regards Tufty

James, no no, my partner in crime is here referring to a cruising and dax-loving budy ;)
The Lady prefers Vespa's and Lambretta's.

Tufty, only a few people drive an automatic car here, altough the 'tiptronic' are becoming quite popular.
Automatic gears here are for old or incapable drivers :lol:
A lot of the Dax drivers here change their semi-automatic clutches to manual, just for the fun of driving (and the increased lifespan of the clutch and gearbox)
Besides that, my last two clutches are clutches mounted on the gear box instead of crank.
This because this dramitically decreases the rpm of the clutch.

WOW that brown color looks really good, never really thought too much beyond the standard colors. A whole world opens. . . :idea:
