What's the script on these machines? I might have an option on one for summer rides, the RT is too damned hot when the sun gets out. Strangely on topic. -- Jeweller R100RT Formerly: James Captain, A10, C15, B25, Dnepr M16 solo, R80/7, R100RT (green!) www.davidhowardjeweller.co.uk

Early ones had the same Rotax engine as BMW F650 (except the pegaso has a 5 valve head and the BM has a 4 valve one) As I love my F650 to bits I can only assume the Pegaso would be similar fun. -- Steve Parry BMW R80RS, 03 BMW R1100S Boxercup, 07 K1200GT SE 95 BMW F650, 87 Yamaha FS1, Sukida SK90PY, 91 Kawasaki AR50, BMW 330Ci www.gwynfryn.co.uk

A friend loves his - it's one of the early ones with the Rotax engine. He uses it to commute from central London to his work at Heathrow. Looking a bit tatty now but it is over 10 years old. He's a frog and has it registered at his brother's address in Metz. He's also ignored the requirement to change his licence to a UK one, despite being resident here for 5 years. Apparently, he hasn't had any NIPs and when he got a tug from plod he was sent away with a bollocking in Franglais

No, I wasn't being a pedant - I didn't recognise the word, and the typo foiled my attempt to look it up.
