    Duke scooters have been around for years. there were various models back in the 50's and 60's.
    If you say either "I can" or "I can't" your correct.

    please tell me that shot is a hoax!! people owning those in the same country would mortify any owner of a 748, 916,996 or 998!!!

    I once took a little 50cc pullrod Duke motor across to OZ as hand luggage - the guy in customs opened the bag,took a look,then closed it again.Ended up on a mantlepiece in Melbourne.

    having looked again, i'm more convinced it is a hoax.. a well done one but definitely a hoax. The exhausts are distinctly 4 strokers.

    I ve got 4 stroke scooters from the 50's and the 80's - new Vespas are 4 strokes - so that means little

    Must be damn hot over there for a 50cc to need a radiator and oil cooler that large!
    Luv it!

    I get the feeling it'd sell well if it was real, fake radiator, poser exhausts and all. I wonder who be keen to adjust the desmodromic valves on a 50 though.

    The BMW scooters are 170 odd cc's, single cylinder,double overhead cam and 4 valves-very 4 stroke.

    ok, so the 4 stroke comment wasn't the best, but it would be DAMN gutless if it was a 4 stroke. hmm... 24cc cylinders and twin exhausts... thats gonna be a bitch to look after!

    anyway... since when did anyone need a scooter with twin disc brakes and errr.. SIX pot calipers? I don't think so Tim!

    In actual fact MOST scooters are 4 stroke these days. Specific output for small 4 strokes has been going up rapidly of late, and 2 strokes are struggling to meet emissions regulations in most of the developed world.

    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    Now thats a scooter! Very tasty indeed. Wouldn't mind hopping in that to get some milk from the dairy and pulling a few wheelies on the way.
