Been window shopping again and saw this fo sale not far from me as it happens.

Never seen one before, now if they made it with a 650 engine :twisted: I do like the design. I often watch videos of Japenese custom scooters like these

and it looks like that's where they got the idea from. The idea originated with a japanese cartoon series I think, I can't remember what it's called.

Groovy looking aren't they! Not officially imported, but you do see a few advertised for sale. Presumably based on old Burgman 250 mechanical bits. Not sure if they really are that long, or just look long as they are so low!

Might be tricky registering and insuring. There's probably someone who knows how to do that but certainly not me.

I agree I do think they look sort of futuristic in a seventies way. The place that's selling it sell a lot of Japanese bikes and cars and I think they do a lot of the paperwork and advise you on how to do the rest.
