Yamaha SR125....dirty dark metallic green....owned by a traning school in Reading, Berks.......star ship miles.
Did a weeks intensive......Oct/Nov 1996.....no pics. Wet times............had a soggy arse all week....but a first time pass even though my foot went down. He must have liked me.
Even locked it up on the Em Stop (nerves).

Kawasaki KC100 companion in black with a silver chain guard, it felt super fast after twelve months riding my DT50 (16 yrs old) got the KC for my 17th birthday and passed my test on it 3 months later, then guess what. My first Superdream AVT 80T in the best colour 👌

Sorry mate.....just re-read the thread title. I never owned it. It was lent to me for a week by a training school in Reading......Oxford Road, can't remember their name. I never owned a bike at the time but as soon as I passed my bike test, I went and bought a knacker of a black CB250N-A from a guy in Wallingford, Oxfordshire.....it served me well and continued to have me hooked on the SD.......I got SBY (my black 400) the year afterwards.  |

Yes My Honda H100a It's on this forum somewhere And thanks to the great search facility on the Forum this is it - The bike served be well - lived in Northumberland and in the 2 years I owned it it made it to South Harrow in London - Norfolk a couple of times and regularly got down to Rutland - It was under powered and slow but with patience it went anywhere  |

These are the two bikes I owned when I passed my test the rsx 125 was a little rough but the gsx400 was a minter & I wish I kept it i passed on a cg125 which was a riding school bike so no pictures but as soon as I passed I near enough gave the rsx 125 away & was straight on the GSX 400  russian photo hosting site |

What jacket was that Pete? The photo was taken on the way back from the bike show at the NEC. I was stopping at my brothers for the weekend at RAF Cottesmore I think. The jacket must have been his so I am not sure The side pannier you can see was on his F reg Starfire |

Looked like a Belstaff of some sort - with added patches. Nice.
