Bought a Scooter

Post by FtoSam »

Yeah... Just bought myself a scooter...
2004 Model Bollwell Scoota Gypsy
Blue Colour with 2 Helmets, Carry Box and 50cc's of raw power...
Lol...
But with $3 for a tank of petty, and a $1000 Purchase price, Im quite happy with it... Pick it up on saturday hopefully.

This will enable me to get to work and back in 2 mins flat and i can leave the car in the garage... Which will be especialy good untill i get my new engine in..

And yes... I have already researched NOS kits and Aftermarket Exhausts, etc...
:lol:

      And i've already put enquirys into NOS kits.. At this stage, one shot wonders look to be the weapon of choice... but smoking a Comodore off the lights in a Scooter.... Priceless... lol

        Spokes

        Post by dstocks »

        Shame it hasnt got spokes. Then you could put reflectors on it.

        Have you thought about streamers taped to the end of the handle bars. Or maybe one of those big flags that you used to find on the back of dragsters (a long time ago). Or the basket on the front maybe......
