I had a LT 150 in '06. Couldn't find a LX.That bike Had zero problems. I was in a bad accident about a month after i got it. Spent a few weeks in the hospital and my friend tried to find where the cops towed it. They lost it.

So i resigned myself that it was lost until i got a letter saying they (tow yard) were going to auction it off if i didn't pay the $1000 in storage fees.
So i made a few phone calls and i got the $1000 from the cops.
My friend and i went to pick it up. were in the tow yard and the guy goes to a corner and there's my LT laying on it's side.
Picks it up and wheels it out. It started right up.
Bike was good except for a few cosmetic issues. Ran perfect. Months later i gave it to a friend but that bike was reliable. If that had been the LX it never would of started. that said it was ugly. But that's my opinion. If you like it, it's a great bike.
