You obviously don't know how to read in between the lines. I didn't mean actual hate. Then give me an example of 'inbetween the lines' type of hate? I know, they're just ridiculing scooters as toys. Still, A bicycle with an engine kit is a toy compared to a scooter, but it's still a fun toy!So who cares if I ride one? It's efficient, it's fast enough (usually 30-35MPH top speed)... Hi They are much more then toys imho, in actuality they are motor vehicles Take care and ride safely dear friend Yours Hank |

Yes, but he has a very elaborate setup, and I'm thinkin' for all the work and money why did't he just buy himself a scoot?

A motorized bicycle like those is a very intense ride. No where near as tame as a scooter. Unless your scooter is a heavily modified.

Hi They are much more then toys imho, in actuality they are motor vehicles Take care and ride safely dear friend Yours Hank Some of them can be ridiculously fast indeed! however the stock 45T 50cc 2 stroke engine kits barely make enough power to go faster than 35MPH. I've got the 66cc kit, but for some reason it only has a power output of a ~33cc 4 stroke.; meaning the 50cc 2 stroke kits for bicycles I think they're performing like a 25cc 4 stroke, not like a 50cc 4 stroke. |

I got a thumbs-up just now. By a rider on a red Ducati. Said rider was a beautiful woman in a skin-tight leather riding outfit.  Fortunately, I was stopped or I might have tested my safety gear! |

Thanks! (Glad you enjoyed it.) How long had you been waiting for the right moment to use that one?? Or does it just come naturally?? Naah, just pops into my head spur-of-the-moment like.  |

I live in Harley Country. The factory and museum are here. ALOT of Harley riders. All the ones I have rode past waved to me first. The only ones that don't wave are the squids. The first day I went for a ride a Harley rider waved and I accidentally did the arm up wave, I felt like an idiot lol.
Only ran into one scooter rider so far. Just got a nod from him.
Wonder how things will fare during Bike Week when all the harley riders from across the country are in town. Might get laughed at if I tried to "hang" Specially with my pony decals lmao
