It was funny to see new Bantams around in 1968 and at the same time there was the Suzuki 200 invader. I remember my Brother on his Suzuki and his mate bought a brand new Bantam. After a few Months, his mate bought a brand new Suzuki too.
Quite a few go on the annual Dartmoor ride ridden by the older riders as the weight is lower and easy to start. Strange but i have never ridden one but maybe a CZ 175 is a bit similar and i liked that.
