This is the problem when only old people are buying bikes, instead of something new and modern we get retro shit that reminds the old people of when they were young :)

I like it, esp the paint, except the seat. It's defo a retro seat but it looks pony.

The black version gets a two tone seat, which makes it look a bit better, but not by much.

That black one... if you cover the seat with your thumb and squint a bit, there's a hint of Suzuki Wolf 250 about it.

They've been looking at it in one of those funny funfair mirrors haven't they?

I'm more offended by the position and size of the headlight, than the seat. The colour is really nice and the wheels and forks look great.
