General description
Lightweight 1980's design that's clever but old now.
Very cheap, as they now are between 10 and 20 years old.
Surprisingly still quite a few around.
Things to look for when buying one
Just about everything.
Unlikely to have had much money spent on looking after it, as it isn't worth a lot even on a good day.
The good bits
Good ride, economical (for the time) and reasonable performance from a 1-litre engine, which is mainly down to its low weight.
The not so good bits
Designed quite a long time ago - before many of the recent advances in safety technologies. Some say that it is better to have a crash in one than in a soggy cardboard box....but only just.
