The Curtiss P-40 has always been one of my favorite war birds, too. My mouse pad at work has a big image of a P-40 on it.

True. The Genuine Buddy scoots are made in Taiwan, but the G400 and Kick come from China. The G400 has a nice clone motor of the Honda XR400. Its a single thumper with twin exhaust headers.
The new G400c can be had for a couple grand less than a Yamaha SR400, and you don't have to kick start it.
On the other hand, the Royal Enfield Himalayan (400cc) costs less, and can go off road.

Count Chocula. Nothing like having your face on a cereal box.

I think it is a good idea to fully break in the engine before de-restriction and speed parts.

I hope Minnie Mouse is running again soon. Weather has been crappy here too.

I like the last one that has the flat aircraft engine. That bike needs a tail number.

I think he should be able to achieve better than 25mph, even if he weighs 2 Bill's. Sounds like a cvt issue but I have never serviced one.

Is the Beast fully broken in? They gain power until they are completely broken in.

Whitey Bulger, because Bulgaria was named for him.

I saw Bohemian Rhapsody, the movie about Freddy Mercury and Queen. I have been a fan since the late 70s, when they got very little air play on the radio.
The movie had enough humor and plot that a non-fan would enjoy the movie.
The movie focused on how Freddy Mercury's band mates and managers tried to keep him in check, without muzzling his creativity. It also focused on Mercury's relations with his family, the girl he almost married and his Male lovers.
The movie will be fine to watch on video if you are a fan. The scene in Wembly Stadium was certainly better on the big screen, but that is a small portion of the movie.

I saw a thread on another forum that the ubiquitous 229cc dual sport engine from the Hawk and others will bolt in to the Spade frame with no cutting or welding to replace the 150cc vertical engine. That would be really fun except for coming up with a larger exhaust.
