What the top speed on this bad boy? I'd like to get one to ride to work but I don't think it could keep up with traffic on 309/78/22.

Man. I miss mine. I had every bolt on mod you could get save for a swap and at most maxed out at 46mph. Ninja tucked as well.

So whats the deal with legalizing one of these? I know scooters dont need a licensee correct? Still the same deal for registration and insuring as a normal bike?

How does a stock one carry you? Im a fatty, dont think it would like hauling me. Ill keep an eye on your build. I may save up and buy one of these this summer. =]

All you gotta do is buy one, and register it just like you would any other motorcycle. You get insurance which is about 60-75 for the year, and you just need your regular drivers license. And as far as how it carries me, I'm 5'10" 175 and it'll cruise at 37-38 with me on it on flat ground. Im pretty comfortable on it, idk how big you are but i can imagine it getting really cramped if you're like 6'2" and over 220 but there are plenty of big guys that ride them....thats what lowered seat frames and handle bars are for :D

Do these have troubles tripping lights? I might get one to ride to work since its not even 2 miles, and not a heavily populated road. Id hate to be sitting at a light waiting for another car to pull up.

On a better note i ordered this (seat frame, tail light bracket, and integrated led taillight)



and this handlebar set up from pw:jdm.



I think thats it for spending money on the visual stuff for now, saving up for the gy6 swap so i can have it done by the time it warms up :D

I also have front password jdm pegs i didn't get around to installing, and ordered an ncy front end kit and throttle tube which includes new shocks, wheel, 220mm rotor and caliper, master cylinder, blah blah blah should help stop this beast a little better. Next on the list to order is the gy6 motor :D
