I ride it almost everyday when i was in Vietnam, not allowed to but I do. Give the cops $5-10 and they'll let you off.
lol you probably were aloud to but cops just wanted money
Nah, i've checked the law, foreigners not allowed coz they reckon it's too dangerous, they are right. Seen a lot of accidents.

Might be different in QLD, but down in Vic you definetly need a motorbike licence to ride a scooter (read: pooftermobile)

Think there's an engine size limit... or something though.

Had a feeling it was 50cc? I'm probably wrong though.

You're a brave man sam. I've never felt overly compelled to getting onto one of those things... if I'm on the road risking my life, I'll do it on a bike that can handle and accelerate out of tricky situations TYVM. :lol: A big pot hole will swallow you up.

Can't wait to hear how she performs in a massive storm, lucky you don't have to ride far I guess :D

I'm not sure how but you need to put a wing on that thing... get some red coloured tyres too.... they're rather bling bling. Can get alloy handle bar ends that are shiny...


Shocked you don't have a V-tech sticker on it... those stickers are international for "awesome". Doesn't matter who builds your engine.... it's free power man.

FREE POWER.

I simply cannot get over that exaust.

Amazing.

I'd take that as an insult to our cars... that and V-tech stickers always appear on all sorts of strange cars that don't have them :)

Hahahaha... Yeah... Its a 50cc... Any bigger requires motorbike license.
And its saving me warming up the car of a morning. (Read extra 10 mins of sleep) as well as heaps cheap on fuel...
Yeah how funny is the exhaust...
But Fluffy dice are my fav.. They add that wanker factor... lol..
Plus it picks up the chicks... rofl..
