the paint job.. it just reminded me of South African cars that are fully stickered up , but are still slower than *granny's car*
.......wait.. scratch that.... it reminded me of all ricers who are going for the *uber-lame* effect.. it's amazing how a couple of weeks pay can do that to a standard cage..

That lame stickered up scooter would do 0-100 in less than 5 seconds with a faster 1/4 mile time than your bike. The Granny like scooter would also Do better wheelies than your bike proven my motoracer who did almost the full 1/4 mile on one wheel, And I have seen people on that scooter do rolling stoppies longer than any kiwibiker stoppie I have seen.
Its probbly the fastest bike around town and will get about 25 km/ltr. Did I mention the top speed of a tuned gilera runner such as this is cabiable of over 160km/hr?

I used to think scooters were a bit 'lame' till I rode a gilera runner. That thing keeps with a tuned zx2r till about 50k when you hit 13-14K and start making some decent 4 stroke power... crazy things.

One time I got a ride on a 50cc race scooter (texmos).. lofted the wheel in 2nd.. how about that for fun?

And they turn in better than an fxr150.. let me say no more. If I had to live around town I'd get one of them over a bike anyday...

as i said, I'm not making fun of gilera runners.. i'd rather have one parked in my gargre than my kinetic..
