Damn, if only it was in chch I would snap that up in a flash.

I was tempted myself, but don't know if there would be room for a 5th bike in the gargre.

I imagine it would handle great.

That last 10% always takes 90% of the time and twice as much money as you expected/budgeted.

You should be able to figure it out from there

If you get it come and see me about front forks, maybe I can do a deal with painting if what I have would be suitable.

If you're planning on that GT125 for a bucket check the carb size as you cant run a carb size bigger than equivalent of a single 24mm carb on a two stroke over 104cc and I think the GT125 carbs are to big
