    eek Does a B120 count as a motorbike?

    Well, It's on two wheels, I have to straddle it, and can probably kill myself if I'm not carefull, so i think it might just scrape in there.. Hi, I've had this bike for a few weeks now and it is my first. and it is freakin choice! Although when i park outside Deluxe Cafe (work) it does pretend to be a triumph....

    Yeap it sure is a motor bike, and plenty on here race them.
    Welcome to the jungle by the way.
    Nothing wrong with your little ride at all.
    Enjoy it and keep it maintained, it will serve you well.
    Dont be afraid of going long distance with it, it may not be fast, but it will be relyable.

    I had one of those - my first bike. Bent, but I didn't know it at the time. As reliable as a hammer...

    I might still have the original Suzuki workshop manual somewhere.

    You may or may not be aware that the B120's immediate predecessor was called the B100P (even though its engine capacity was 120 cc). As a result, the B100P and B120 were often called the Bloop. Or so I recall, but I can't find any authoritative backing for this theory on the Web.

    A real motorbike? Hmmm, two wheels, motor, not a scooter. Yep.

    If KB had a "Cool Wall" that would have to be at the top! They're a genuine classic! Keep it forever, or if not, give me first option...
