There's just no way I could not buy this.

holy shit thats clean. liquid cooled 80cc? i know zero about those. 97 miles wtf!

It's AC
But it's very slow, gets poor mileage, and has almost zero storage (but rack), to make up for that!

chamber time.

I looked it up.. 36? mph? wow Of course i ran across some post/guy that did work to it and was getting 50 out of it.

I'm about 15 miles into it, it runs better than when I got it, and for sure the handling is sketchy. Not sure of the best terms but the front end rake seems very short. The steering is twitchy at 30. I've been 35, it had a bit more. I'll get used to it though and I would love to put a chamber on it. The exhaust now is very quiet, which is nice in it's own way. 50 mph might be frightening on this thing. I still have some checkup items and possible refurbishing.

Does this thing have crank seals? lol
