Me too. Only mine was the yellow one, with the yellow and grey mottled seat, gold rims and sparkly decals. It did 35mph, which made for great fun at the moped traffic light GP. The Honda Visions would always took an early lead, but I'd get them sooner or later.

^^^^^ You were always a bit chicken in races? Or did you just grouse about the top speed? Dave PS. "Paltry", maybe?
