Funny that, I've got a hankering for an old RD350LC. I used to have one in me yoof, and loved it. Two strokes are getting back under my skin... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

When I fuel up I normally put a drop of Castrol R in the tank for the smell. I forgot to add some the day before - not sure if you could smell any that was still in my tank.

You wanna come on one of our two stroke runs when we put over 60 strokers on the road - seriously smokie... ;D

I had an MZ125 in black. Excellent bikes you could spend hours polishing the cases. A friend of mine bought it off me and decided he didn't have enough money for both petrol and two stroke oil one day so only put petrol in it. You can guess what happened next.
Also had an AP50 that must have done atleast 80mph ;D
