There is a lot to praise these little bikes, easy on slippery winter roads,frugal,easy to maintain, tyres last forever,nimble in traffic,and in the lanes,cheap insurance,and great fun to ride due to their ease of use.
I'm obviously a fan. :)

Spotted a red DL250 going westbound on the M4 Swansea on Thursday about 4pm.
 :shock:

First one I've seen other than in a dealers... or me pushing it into the workshop.
They are quite light!

I'm toying with the idea of one when the diversion eventually dies... but I may just buy a VanVan.

Joining the bandwagon sold 650 k8, had a few fixer thous,  a versy 650, and just got rid of a gsxr k9 for a DL250.  Loads of fun throwing it around and super cheap to run.
