I do like your Capri's...a lot

Scootering featured one way back when; that was fitted with some 2 stroke bike engine...may have been an RD I can't remember. But the pics looked very nice and from memory the write up was glowing.

Capri & Iso along with a Triumph Tigress 250 have started appealed to me looks wise...so retro they're almost modern lol. If you've seen the Yamaha Fino you'll know what I mean.

Anyway nice bikes

No Ric, that isn't the Capri I meant.

It was a two tone colour scheme Ochre and Brown I think and in Switzerland or somewhere. Looked nice anyway.

Haha ok...I never said the fino was nice, just that the design reminded me of the Tigress.

Saw loads of Fino's in Thailand recently. They love to have them chromed & modded up covered in tat accessories...Burberry seat covers anyone?? Haha

The Capri is a great little runabout...everything that is fun about scooters...you can thrash the crap out of it , starts great, easy maintenance and relitively easy to get parts and everybody looks....you just have to take hills in 1st :lol:
