    This little thing is just cool to me

    If I thought I could get on it without killing myself I would have one.

    Looks like a lot of fun .Too bad it would probably kill me.

    Looks like the old Honda 50 of the days..... I had one back in the mid 70's I used as a pit bike. Had the tank painted with a mirror like the Husqavarna tanks.... It was a cool little bike. I could ride wheelies for days on that thing.

    I want one but am currently thinking about a Trials Bike to help keep my eye hand coordination and balance in peak condition... At low speeds

    I think it'd be great for riding around the hood. Nice to see it's got disk brakes on each wheel and can be ordered with ABS as well.

    Would you really want ABS on a bike? Hard to throw it into a berm if you can't steer with the rear wheel

    I can't convince myself to drop 4 grand on something to look at and crank once in a while. Like Phillbo I had the 50cc model years ago and enjoyed it about as much as any machine I have ever owned. I guess I am just letting nostalgia get to me,,, BUT it is a handsome little bike.
