cool…ready to race
Excellent Nick, you’ll have to post up some pics when you get a chance.
Wow… that is pretty expensive… I would have bought a used R6 or something. My friends dad bought a china scooter for his wife for $600 bran new… for $600 id rock it.
lol
Yeah, I contemplated a lot of other options, but the SR50R came out on top. I figure the SR50R is a step up from my SR20’s…
As far the the sport bike option, my driving record made insurance extremely expensive. Also, I don’t think I could control myself on a sport bike [speed wise].
I also don’t care too much for Asian crap…
The Aprilia also will depreciate less than all the other scooters.
Spec wise the thing is pretty cool. Ive been getting crap about this from everyone except a lot of sport bike riders. The Aprilia name is worth something, but even without the name it pretty cool [imo]. Its on 49cc, but its water-cooled, computer-controlled direct fuel-injected, front and rear disc brakes with dual piston calipers, and some other stuff.
For what I wanted/needed, I think its perfect.
stuntin yet?
some asshole rode a scooter into work in leathers…lol… i hope it wasn’t you
I was just checking your scooter out. Pretty nice setup. I have had SO much more fun on mine than both rockets that I have owned. I too have a problem with controlling myself on a sport bike. What area are you from? Could you drive it in to Pittsburgh? Checkout scootdawg.com
Scooter inventory’s (chinese atleast) are being purchased faster than they can make them; its just a matter of time until the price starts rising on them.
I do get a lot of shit for wearing a jacket. But, whatever, skin graphs aren’t cheap.
Not yet…
but someday…
i really want to do this:
how fast does yours go stock? im getting tired of going 15mph up hills.
Beep beep
Up big hills it goes about 25, flat I can do about 45-50, down hills 50-55. Its still ECU restricted, and it may have a restrictor ring on the variator [some of the 09’s do some dont].
People Ive talked to see relatively large gains from just a pipe and some CVT tuning.
