How do, used to have a PX MK1 but have just bought a nice 90s style T5 Classic

Its quite fast for a 125, just needs some subtle mods to tone down the quite wild colour scheme!

was gonna buy a second hand scomadi but it had electrical issues

Thanks mate, the IMG tags must not like the ebay link

At first I was buying for the body condition (good) and was gonna repaint, but in person its actually a really nice metallic. Might ditch the green flame strip though.

I don't mind the green flame either. Is it paint or vinyl?

I like the base colour. If your taking away some of the flash new you should try match that and repaint the muddy and panels.

Not sure TBH, the striping is cleared over, thinking its a sticker and not airbrushed.
