    Thats a real mans bike, i remember at 16 years of age 1978 going to Bowens of Llawhaden and buying a brand new Honda Camino for £206 on the road including a years insurance, i was so proud of that bike. My Father gave me £50 towards it as i did get 8 O Levels !!!!!! Did 7000 miles in one year.

    Probably easier to handle off-road than a Vara!
