This Exactly.

It's only a Suzuki Dr 125 Sm..2010 model...!

I want to save it...It has been neglected..

Hard work tho as spare parts for these bikes are nigh on impossible to get.!

Still..Carry on..

For reference...125CC Motorbikes are fetching silly money these days...!

One like mine went for £1500..Recently..!

I could buy a 900CC (Any bike) for that kind of money.!

It's all about the TAX/Insurance/Fuel..

Look familiar Mick?

Just went to pick up the TV remote earlier and the thumb locked up. For those who have never experienced it the thumb is solid in that position hard against the palm, no amount of willpower can move it, have to use the other hand to free it and for a few minutes after freeing it it wants to return to that position. In my case it isn't particularly painful, more annoying.

Might be worth getting yourself checked over, its more common in those with diabetes (which I have) or an indicator of rheumatoid arthritis.

Yes steve it is like that. I have to use my other hand to free the other.!!

It's absolutely crazy.!

I have been to my doctor (First time in 15 years!!)..who has prescribed me something called 'Qunine Sulphate'.

I've been taking them for a week now and all seems well.

My doctor said it was/is caused by previous work i have done or because i was using my hands in a different way to how i normally use them?...

Makes sense i suppose, i was in the building trade for around 15 years, i used 'Breakers' quite often but only wore normal gloves.

I think things have changed now a days, you have to use shock proof gloves and stuff.!
