    ok after a bit of banter with the old bloke you know as shiny :yahoo:
    he says drags are gay
    i say drags are cool
    i also say old men suit the runner as they sit upright so easy on the old arthritous

    but i need a moped for work so why would i choose the gay runner over the mighty dragster?

    and before any of you get a bit venomus in your answers this is just a bit of fun to convince me to buy a runner so no need to be clever or anything :thumbsup:

    i have a drag(f ing pain) myself and love it but the only down point is you cant buy brand new parts for them and if you find the parts the prices are sky high.and thats the only reason im selling mine soon and buying a runner.

    i would not go from a dragster 2 stroke to a runner 2 stroke thats just stupid

    just get a cheap as chips 4 stroke commuter and keep the drag

    on the 50's ye.. on the 125 theres a reserve tank that doubles capacity... can take 8/9 quid from empty if you know how to fill a typh right up (need to stop half way and start the bike funny enough)

    you on an ice ffs honest this i gotta see ,i just cant getb into a drag they are poo ?had two here now rubbish sorry but true ?minors only a lad still gets away with riding a boys bike lol real men ride runners you know they know we all know :yahoo:
    my chosen boat at the mo is the wifes standardish vx 125 never sees the petrol station ,just goes on and on never misses a beat when you get used to the hydramatic suspension its a right giggle ?
    6.5 gram rollers pm61 and it keeps up with a 2t 125 ?its faster on a long road :thumbsup:
    i am starting to like these 4t cheap asfook to buy too :p
    if we all had a 4t we would actually be able to go somewhere lol
