    nah, peice of piss to find a nice one, just hard paying the prices there worth now.. imadgen if no gilera/typh was ever stolen.. they would all still be cheap and every road would have a runner like it was 10 years ago

    incorrect... the fx had a drum rear wheel....
    sp is the better bike (few other differences)
