Saw this ad and thought it was worth posting.

100 mpg??? Guess the new ratings are a big conspiracy. Break out the tin foil hats.

Anybody got the part number for the chrome skull accents for these?

Also I know a guy that's interested in a trike conversion kit for it because he's just not comfortable on two wheels anymore.

And what about the guy that has his preteen son riding "bitch". Isnt that maybe a little too NAMBLAesque?

I think it would be fun if we all printed out this ad, and mailed in the address card asking to test ride one.

I want a SCOOT AWAY TRANSMISSION for my bike!
