His face when he looked first at his engine and then at my apparently identical one was a picture... all he said was "I thought it was nippy for a 125" :lol:

Looking at your photo Jaz how did you get a reversing light on the Fusion? Surely didn’t come like that......?

Gotta say Jaz, that's one hell of a nice machine you've got there. I always liked em but never got the chance to get one. ;)
Probably not ugly enough for the 'Ugly Bunch'! :lol:

There's no reversing light, Jim, do you mean the high level brake light? That's something the later Fusions (X and SE models) had for the Japanese domestic market from about 2003 onwards. Jialing copied them and consequently both my bikes have them fitted now.

Cheers :) I have bought newer (and bigger) things in the past and always gone back to the two of them. Incidentally, that bike looked like this when I bought it off eBay for £30 (thanks to an old forum member Visfix):

'fess up, Jaz.

Were you ever tempted to keep it looking like that? Even a little bit? 8-)

PS: I still wonder whether I should have grabbed that one I wrote to you about in 2013.

Jaz, Looking at your inset picture the right hand indicator appears to be white - maybe it’s just reflection?

Nothing wrong with that. I have an Asda basket I use on occasion.

Someone else nicked it from Asda, I just acquired it ... your honour. 8-)
