I had a Casal K190, it had huge fins like the Spanish off-roaders of the day, so it looked like it could be a 190.  One lad around our way had a six speed Fantic, he must have been into tap dancing.  Another mate had the rather boring Puch MT50 sport, or Puke as we called it.  Happy days winding up the local Lambretta mob, the ones with forty rearview mirrors, riding behind them on full beam and then choking them in two stroke fumes.

Kin spot on, when 16 had almost exactly as Andy's first picture FS1E-DX, only thing different was the seat, wasn't quite the same as that, but boy did it get a thrashing, must have done more miles per year when 16 than any year since, super days.
he he the pea shooter Micron pipe with no silencer!!superb!!!!,
When 17, brand spanking new LC350 again with little can Micron pipes, awesome!!
Cheers Dave.

but the DX just wasn't an E was it    nice but not the perfect Fizzie 

ah ha  small can microns, like these beauties I had on my 250 then and they sounded even nicer without the baffles    I tried that once ha ha.  Still sounded bloody lovely with baffles in though    bloody hell a 350LC at 17, yer lucky git

Ground clearence looks a bit of an issue with those pedals sticking out!

a few of my mates had fizzies.they were older bikes when i was old enough for a 50 in 1986.
remember buying my first bike the very day i left school...a VERY good day .
got a suzuki x1 as i hadnt a clue what to buy in those days.
this was folllowed by a yam rd125 lc which was a brill bike and the one i passed my test on..sounded ace when having its nuts revved with the micron on..

happy days

I had chrome Allspeeds on my 350LC, with the Pro-Am fairing and belly pan.  I stripped it down and had the frame stove enamelled in cherry red to match the paintwork, it looked like a tart's handbag when I'd finished it.  I always wanted the Stan Stephens 375 kit but never quite got around to it.

I had an early fsie with the pedals still fitted, twoz red with yamaha speed block paint, drop bars and a big bore

seizures and rebuilds every few months but that was probably due to me using mobil 2 stroke oil that resembled muddy water, I couldnt face spending out on silkolene on my meager apprentice wage......what a fool.

I was well into MX bikes but could still only ride a 50cc on the road so proceeded to buy a TS50X, dog slow but fun off road.


Wish I could have put my YZ125 on the road, faaaaaaast!
