View AttachmentOlder Brother just sent me this photo of the bike he will be bringing up tomorrow to keep me on 2 wheels till Symba days. He says it's 'iconic in the motorcycle world so better look after it'......is it? i don't know My dear boy (doing the old fart bit here!). That looks like a Yamaha FS1E to me! They were all the rage when Jenksy was your age nipper!!! As I remember it had 4 gears.As big bruv says iconic. They were good fun back in the 70's and 80's. Must admit though I still think you can't beat a twist and go scooter. Should serve you alright though until you get your Symba on the road. Have fun now.

Spot on there jenksy, and blimey that is one very tidy one.Would guess it is a later one prob late 80's early 90's when they were introduced again.Iconic.....i think worshiped by 16 year olds who wanted one but a Tomos had to do at the time.

I agree about it being the Fizzy (or at least that's what I was told it was called). Your a lucky lad getting to ride a bit of history.
