I got my motorcycle license on a Honda TL125 many many years ago
I used to be able to fill the tank for $3
Can do that today with my VTR

Good luck finding a good TL
Cheers

Ha,
years ago after naggin' my folks for ages they agreed to buy me a bike. I was about 12 then & the choices at Dave Whittaker Honda
were a SL 70 or a TL 125.....but I was a midget back then & the 125 was a tad daunting. I chose the 70

Anyway years later I rode a TL250 for a bit & Id like another

Of the subject but where there lots engine changes to give them more grunt as . i might be wrong but there trails machine

my dad alsways said they pocess more skills than probley more to the point they have to use them more

I remeber back to 80s in chch one honda sales men was top trails rider went overseas to they sound diffrent dont they the engines

All weight low in the frame but engine has still of the ground for clearance

That and speedway solo total exterme to each other both singles though mind you both riders have to have good trottle control

Yeah i like have ride on one myself , be kinda cool had ride day where chould take your bike and just have gentle ride around

On other forks intresting bikes , some bikes id thought where not for me are actually pretty dam good.

Thanks for the headsup George...the TLR's looking tempting. Bit of a toss up between a CTX200 for the farm or a TL for fun!!

i think i got wot yer sayin there achtungbaby!! Im gettin to the age where goin flat out-ish on a dirt bike's a bit daunting, & modern bikes are rather tall. Trials bikes look like they'd bounce well too.
