i got one! a 50cc magnum from some place in japan. evidently the engines are as solid as anything and my buddys dad hasnt had any come back for anything major... at all... so, i rode it all over this afternoon, me and my wife went to a cool noodle restaurant, putted around... and here i go... making my trip to work cost me 11 cents vs $1... a savings of 89 cents...
now, i realize its not EVERY DAY, i realize i will not pay off the thing with savings for a year or two, but BUT i will be filling up my car less than once a week at what is now ~$85, to maybe every other week... and thats NICE! we have such good weather here, that RAIN is about the only thing that would preclude me from riding it to work... so, im stoked and its gonna be even more fun when my lady gets hers and we can ride all around to stuff together :) w000t -- tony Better than a thousand hollow words, is one word that brings peace. -- siddhartha gautama On Tue, Jun 17, 2008 at 8:18 PM, denstar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > It's mad fun!
