This caught my eye in a mate's yard today, wasn't sure what it was so had a peer and found it was a factory-made 125 suitable for learners!!!!  This one's called the Daytona (and has just been sold (secondhand) for around £1800) http://www.ajsmotorcycles.co.uk/new_AJS/docs/main.htmAnd they do another called the Bobber http://www.ajsmotorcycles.co.uk/new_AJS/docs/main.htmSo many cool detail parts........ have a look at the downloads on the pages, and you may wish you were 17 again!!!  New price for either model seems to be less that £3000 according to the web adverts, so you'd have your paper round money pretty hard............. |

Yep, plenty of room for something daft to go in there Spindly frame, crap forks, virtually no brakes, just add big engine |

You know, those little AJSs would have a lot of space for a 'decent' motor if the original was to be removed................ |
