    A Yamaha I'd actually own

    The "Yambina".

    Looks like a bit of a giggle.

    Racing is such an expensive sport. This looks like it would be a very fun machine, but the purchase price of the machine is probably the tip of the iceberg.

    You're as bad as me Jimmy, perving at what I can't afford. Nice find, there's some serious engineering in that we gem, so I reckon it's a pretty cheap start price.

    You do see some bargains from time to time though and this is one of them. As he says though, it needs a fair bit of time and development to get it dialed in properly.

    I like this bit

    ----Please note this is NOT for the faint of heart or learner driver, it is insanely fast and is the closest thing to a super Kart you will get with a tin top.

    Started its life with a rotary engine- Many will remember it as the Fiazda. Now MUUUUUCH more insane!!!!
    Zen wisdom: No matter what happens, somebody will find a way to take it too seriously. - obviously had KB in mind when he came up with that gem
