First ride - called in to see a mate and he had this .......scooter.....A "Silver Pigeon", made by Mitsubishi I think.
Anywho, he said try it out.....so....hopped on the thing, fired it up and off down the gravel footpath on Carlisle Rd , in Browns Bay....! That was it - hooked. 2 months later , bought a brand new Yamaha 100 twin off Whites in Newmarket.......6 weeks later, I got a license (full....ha ha ...suckers....those were the days)!
