A Honda even Horobags (probably) hasn't owned

Hi from Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. No maxis here but quite a few muppets on mainly 125cc motorcycles and makes I've never heard of. I've not seen anything over 150cc. They're anything from a taxi to a family saloon, it seems. There's a few Hondas - again not models we see in the UK - including this fine example I saw in the car park after work today.

It's probably a good job this is here and not in Hunts' showroom or that Repsol DN-01 may on its way out already (that's if Mark still has it.)

Oops, Lyn's post wasn't there when I started wrestling with bloody 3G logging me out.
(Hunter/Postie = same thing)

Welcome, I know Dar es Salaam quite well, do you get over to Zanzibar much, lunch at Blues restaurant used to be a nice experience. Take care

Too true, I've just finished reading "the long ride home" where a guy rides a CT110 "postie bike" from Sydney, Austrlia to London, England.

I'm only in Dar for a couple of weeks so I don't know it well. Hoping to get over to Zanzibar on Saturday. I'll see if I can find Blues, thanks for the tip. Is it in Stone Town?

By the way, whatever the bike is, I saw a few more today including a near minter in black, which would be very impressive in the UK, but is miraculous here given the way they ride them through the traffic.
