I don't know whether to congratulate you or pull out the Kleenex in empathy.

But - I have to axe: why did you sell such a fine scoot?

Why did you sell it?
I am not a mechanic, nor do I play one on TV. Actually my advice is probably worth slightly less than what you pay to view it.

lots not forget kenny that it may be a chinese bike, but its the engine that counts. 1PE40QMB Minarelli engine. better than the SE50 engine. id say this engine sits right up there with the dio. plus this bikes newer and its faster. at least it aint a spree. lol :lol:
