My Dad bought me a brand new 1997 DT125 formy 16th birthday. I remember it cost R15k and I got to ride it off the Linex Yamaha showroom floor. I did a few laps of the parking lot and then out into Hans Strijdom rush hour traffic. That's how I learnt to ride.

The bug had bitten:
I gave 600 superbikes a hard time on one of these

Commuted from Cresta to Kyalami for a year on one of these. It's a BWZ in disguise (still have it in my back yard awaiting rebuild)

My first four stroke... a 1986 if I remember correctly. Bought it for pennies, she ran beautifully for 20,000km, then the engine basically exploded so I went back to the scooter.

...and finally my current pride & joy
