damono Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 watch those things tho. My bro got one, brand new, and the engine died after two weeks. It might not be under warranty too because somewhere in the fine print it says that for the first 1000k's you cant do more than 50km hr and it needs a service @ 300km. If you just bought it new i wouldnt go 70 in it Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/68335-i-have-a-new-toy/#findComment-1267552 Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyzerr33 Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 theres a more blokey version costs about $400 on the road. and to get it up to 110, u can get the pistons bored out and the cat drilled.

skyzerr33 Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 Might be a bit awkward in a couple of months time hopefully i'll have some wheels by then. so kyles will get the car and i'll have to take the scooter to the choochoo station. seeing i only work 2 days shifts each week it works out fine. oh and i mean the blokey version was an extra $400 on the road compared to kyles one, my bad.

Kyles Posted March 26, 2005 Author Share Posted March 26, 2005 Might be a bit awkward in a couple of months time Because of winter? Well.. i figure .. each winter, we get less and less rain. And when it poors down, its only for 10 or so min.. I rode today in the rain. Was fine. Came home nice and dry. The bike wasnt much different either.

uneekwahn Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 Yeah, in such a small vehicle, you've got zero road presence, and many drivers don't watch out for you. I was looking at buying a peugot scooter before I got the line, but when I took one for a test drive and was nearly run over by a 4WD, I decided I needed something bigger Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/68335-i-have-a-new-toy/#findComment-1269064 Share on other sites More sharing options...
