I'm not into it.
It looks to me like artisanal motorcycles for hipsters. But I can't deny hipsters the right to ride what they want.Last edited by Dogma; 02-07-2017, 01:01 AM.Dogma

I dig them, but way too pricey. I tried to get something going with National Cycles, but they didn't want to sell the bikes, it's more about the accessories(apparel). Well I tried to pull up their site, but it is nowhere to be found. For the 2014 AIMEXPO They were using 49cc engines like you put in bicycles, looks like a blast compared to a scooter if you don't have a license to drive.
:cool:GSRick

For that price with a Chinese clone engine... Nah.
Ambitious, I'm sure they will sell to a few saps but I don't really know who they are marketing this to...
Like Bob said... If I had $6600 I would not pay for that.
My TUX250 brand new was nearly $3K cheaper...Jedz Moto

The 2 dudes proudly holding their bikes look more dweeb than hipster, but my roots are urban industrial.
To me, that front suspension construct looks way too loose for a fast lean in corner.
Probably chosen because the original patent expired long ago.1982 GS1100G- road bike

Not my thing, but pretty cool for a teen. But yeah, way too expensive.

Chuckles almost always turn to jaw drops and a request to ride the bike.
LOLOLOL
I mean come one... If I bought that bike (never would because it's way over priced and under powered... Even to 250 standards) I would be doing something like in the pic above to show case if it truly was "cool".
The Bar fight remark was an attempt at an exaggerated sarcastic joke. Which I guess, I only found humorous...
Just sayin'. The guys (gals) that buy these must have a butt load of extra coin to spend or have no sense of value to money or Has no experience in purchasing a good valued MC.Last edited by Jedz123; 02-07-2017, 03:54 PM.Jedz Moto
