Not well known I know that. You bought a bike you haven't got a clue about? Surely should of been asking these questions before hand? Bit late now you've bought it.

lol^ what i was thinking, ah oh well. the boy in my college seems to love it, didnt let him down an that was about 20miles ride there and back aday 3days aweek plus when ever else he rid it.

haha, well jefro-180 my cbt is expired so i guess i bought it on impulse. got it for peanuts as he was moving abroad needed a quck sell. the seller said he never had any problems, just wanted your opionion. my main concern was why was it so cheap, was it a bargain or a dud? not many people know about this bike. i,ve taken it for a sneaky ride, but have not really tested it. i've stripped her. she looks in good nick we'll just have to wait and see i guess. sym engines any good??
cheers connel fingers crossed
