Hi, It's a long[ish] story, but a friend who is a biker mentioned about a year ago that he was thinking of buying a Bantam as a little runabout.I got me into thinking perhaps I should do the same, but find a winter project to restore. I have been a member of the DAF Owners Club for a number of years offering my advice as a DAF trained mechanic[you remember the DAF, they run on rubber drive belts]. I posted a request on the pro boards for a Bantam and sure enough someone in the club had one to sell which needed a lot of work.
To cut the story short I bought it, restored it,got it re-rgistered and put it on the road last week.
It's fun to ride and brings back fond memories of years ago when 2 strokes ruled the roads. starider
