Testing required Actually a fun ride. Even more fun was at the lights and forgetting I was on it I nodded to a big bike. Oh what fun, he gave me such a look. ;D On that!! That said I did get a couple of nods, so all good. Went to hook my knee in on the first round about and missed as my knees were above the tank and went straight over the top. lol. She needs some more tlc but runs well.

Looks nice enough in the photo Rims look like they only have surface rust! Not keen on the bars, the back brake looks low (pedal position). What are the age of the tyres?

Yes she was a bit miffed I had taken it for a test ride on my own Surface rust on the wheels as noted and yes I suspect the tyres are old, exact date to be confirmed but they look ok. The bars do feel strange, but the bike is so small it would be strange to ride with lower bars. Less than 20k on the clock so it should last. I think it will make a good first bike as well.

I hope your daughter has as much fun on it as you look like you are ;D An incriminating photo. You're clearly not parked at the side of the road - evidence the double yellow lines So WHERE is your helmet? Were you insured when you were riding this motorcyle Mr 2Para; did you have the owners permission? Clearly not if we are to believe your earlier post. It's not looking good for you
