OMG! Everywhere you look on Ebay and even starting to show up on other sites, are the bloody Viet-Bodges! People who bought them several years ago are selling them now, and not telling you they bought them from Vietnam. Plus companies out of Florida, Vegas, San Jose, etc, are buying them straight from Vietnam and reselling them as if THEY did the restoration. It's like the Return of the Living Dead! Everywhere you turn around is an effin Viet-Bodge!!!!! GAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!! MAKE THEM STOP!!!!

Well, you see, there is a special place in hell for those people. They are doomed to an eternity of riding every bodge they ever sold, destined to die in a painfull fireball over and over again; resurrected each time and stuck onto another one of their frankenscoots.
Fear not, I've talked to the man below and he assured me their uppance will come. Of course he's also behind the sales of said scoots, so who knows where that puts things... |

No offense of course, but why are you looking for a scooter on Ebay? Buy scooters and parts from reputable people. They're not hiding out in trees.

There's so much info out there about how bad they are. If a person buys one without doing their research first, I kind of don't feel sorry for them.
Before dropping my cash, I research the piss out of my target. Drives my wife crazy (she says I obsess) - I call it research. It pays off in the end... |

I think there are one or two companies who are ok, the rest are a joke, frames welded together etc, id rather buy a battered frame from vietnam and do the work myself.
