    Argh, frig that, I'm looking at buying something like this (errr maybe )
    Honda CBR125 or 150 out of Thailand, good for 25hp out of the box, landed in NZ around $2000. Otherwise something like the Honda NS-1, this is an 80cc water cooled two stroke, this particular bike has a 100cc big bore kit, good for hmmm rather not say.....
    150cc racing is thriving in Asai so I'm also looking at possibly tracking down some ex race bikes and importing something.

    Bit against the spirit of bucketing, isn't it?
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    Sold! I'll give you nothing! That must be the lowest. As my bucket IS a GP125 it would come in handy

    You lot are REALLY SAD, just go get an old bike say something like a CB125twin race it, not fast but if anyone gets in your way just run them over.
    Stop all the talking and get out there and ride stop spending money and learn to ride the things first If you are new to bucket racing keep it simple and give yourself time to learn you are not going to win first time out as there are some guys racing that are very fast - F5 Dave, Fish, Speedpro, Jim Steadman to name a few.
    CB 125 twins used to rule, race , crash all day long.
    If you're not living on the edge you're not leaning over far enough
