Yeah! Kickstart from the TV! Blast from the past. Saturday noontime televisual entertainment at its finest (well, for the 80s). Jump those logs Swanny!

I used to have a GS125 and that had an iffy kickstart. Had to pump it sometimes to get it to build up compression or something. Had a Haynes manual for it and couldn't understand a word of it. I did use to tighten the chain regularly and pump up the tires and stuff. That was about my limit really...

Haha excellent I remember the skip with rocks and water in

Nice looking bike and very good photo! You gotta change those tires for some ultra off-roading!

EDIT _ woops. See what I mean? Just noticed it was a GS125. Looks sexy in black. Mine was a red one that looked a little more commuterish and a fair bit less cool though it was still quite a nice bike. Until that barsteward gararge deliberately cross-threaded the sparkplug and melted my engine.

Yeah. Kickstart. Had a look at the vid and wow, can't believe people can do things like that. Even by today's standards it's all very impressive.

Yeah, that's more like it! You've even got a skid plate thing covering the engine for when you hop up onto those cars. Broom broom! (Note - not brum brum. That would be Timey!)
