I bought this Yamaha from this guy ,,, [Khmer440 link removed.]
for $50 . Cost $10 to get home on a tuk-tuk . New battery $11, electrics an fuel $12. Total cost $83 .
I realized afterwards it was too complicated for a 14 year old to repair and also to big for him to ride.
I swapped it for a Charly.
New battery $11 , Electrics and gas $20,,,, Total spent on motobikes $114.
And a happy 14 year old kid can take home his charly to the Sa-Aang village.

Chaly not "Charly".
They're bombproof little buggers though, love them to bits.

After all these years the bloody Japs still haven't corrected their spelling mistake.
I didn't know that, ,,,,, so I just patted myself on the back.
The telling and retelling of the Starion/Colt story, complete with racist Japanese accents (implying the Starion is so called because Japanese can't say Stallion) is a part of Australian folklore.

At times I revert to my Kiwi heritage and plead ignorant to Australian culture.

That's okay - there's times that we secretly disown our red-headed step-cousins too...
Mrs Stroppy had a Mysterious Utility when we first got together - short-wheel base, turbo diesel. The thing was danger incarnate, on four wheels, and I loved driving it dangerously. I'd never heard of MUs before. She ended up giving it to a young friend who's a professional hunter to use as a shooting platform.
