New to forum and biking

Hi,

I know it's really just a toy bike but I got a sachs madass 50. Mods include, derestriction, decat and sprocket mods.

3 weeks after passing my CBT and buying this bike I locked up the front wheel and chucked myself off it. Damage was as follows:
Bruised knees, bent handlebars, snapped clutch lever, bent stand and footpegs, snapped number plate, 2 smashed indicators. So now it's far from standard as I had to fix it with what I could find at the time lol.

Pics to follow when I find my camera

Olly

Hi oily... welcome to the forum..

Personally I think the madass is one funky little bike...If I was 20 odd years younger I would be wanting one

Hi Olly, welcome on in

What the hell, 2 wheels is 2 wheels!


Some days you're the dog, some days you're the lamp post. For me, life's a beach, and then the tide comes in ....
