Just thought I'd say Hi and show some pics of my bike. We have a 150cc limit here, so won;t get access to lots of good bikes.. frown

I've had two 'proper' bikes so far here - a Kymco Zing - sort of a cruiser - Korean

and now this Derbi Senda, which really is good fun. I bought it second hand from a guy who had it in his shed for 2 years. It's done 300km (180 miles ?) in 2 years and is basically brand new. Cost me $1500 (750 quid) which for here, is an absolute bargain.

It was a little wierd to get used to after the Zing (A cruiser with its laid back riding position) to this, but I'm oh so glad I decided to move on, the lean angles you can get on this are brilliant ! biggrin

Anyway, some pics...Like I said - nothing specially compared to most on here, but I'm loving this wee bike !

Yep - 150cc max (But 4 stroke only - no 2 strokes allowed to be sold, unless 50cc and under now). Fair enough I supposed as the speed limit here is 35Km/h "officially" (about 22 mph) most people seem to pootle along at 50-55 kmh without any issues.

Allegedly, there are people running 170cc bore kits on their 125 bikes along with importing larger engines from the same model bikes... ;-)

You have a max speed of 22mph. I can't stop at 20mph on my 50 never mind on a bigger bike.
