My wife enjoyed riding the PK and the PX until about 12 years back she had a close call and totally lost her bottle. She still loves being pillion, but says she won't ride again sadly.

Ozoap your white T5 looks exactly like the one me and the missus abused around Kephalonia in 1988. Mind you yours is in better nick! That's an epic load on the other.

The pic outside the Volks was the day after I finished it. I put it in the Brightona Custom Show. It was beaten by a 'lights and mirrors' Lamebwetta! The judge was heard saying there wasn't much to mark it on, as it was "just a standard scooter with a spare wheel bolted on it" A few of my mates still comment when 'lights and mirrors' come up in conversation

put it on a photo site like photobucket.
click reply top right of the screen. when the message box opens select the 3rd icon along the top of the message box. a box opens up where it says url just paste a link to your photo in photo bucket. click insert image.

Rally 200 Autolube. Love this bike. Un-restored, showing a bit of age but to good to pull apart. All std mechanically apart from pack plate under barrel, top chopped off, SIP piston and SIP Road 2 pipe.
