Hi all.Got a new DT 125mx from King's on Bristol Street in 1982.Cost £680.00.Got one in my garage now as an investment as anyone who knows these bikes knows how good they are.Used to love going round the bike shops in the early 80s.Copes,Vale Onslow,Chas Mann,Birmingham Motorcycles,Bastables,Hailwoods and others were my usual haunts on a Saturday and Sunday with my mates.Happy days.

I seem to remember looking around in Copes on the corner of Coventry Rd & Bowyer St back in the 60s. Don't know if it was Chas E Cope though.
