WHAT exactly is this??

[user 213]

I wonder what it'd be like with a car tire on the back?

G'head and laugh, but the scooterista's already do that too. :dribble:

Well SURE! We've all seen that a car can have 2 wheels.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Good un, Howie!!!!

You on your meds?

Eric, what do they call that? So "parsimonious" they'd squeeze a gnat for its oil? (IIRC I got that from YOUR thread :lol2: )

I have read that it is very good and fast going through the twisties downhill because of the front end.

Apparently the scooter folks are really tight with a dollar. Considering you can pay $100 for some scooter tires, I'm not pointing any fingers at them.

I think they look pretty neat, would like to try one sometime. I've seen them at bike rentals here.

I'm also not sure on the filtering. Here they seem to not be classed as bikes, since you can ride 3 wheelers w/o helmets. Who knows.... I've seen them filter, I've seen them sit in traffic.....

Always, compadré, always.

Back on topic: I like the looks and the "out-of-the-box" engineering. I DON'T like the 9 grand price tag for a 500cc scooter. $9k will buy you a very young FJR with very low miles.

Now if I had $9k I could just piss away, the word "maybe" could be cnsidered, especially if I didn't live 50 miles from work. But as an urban commando, it's probably the shiznit.
