Modern Vespa

I saw this on craigslist for cheap and couldn't say no...

Missing: Mini surfboard rack.

Um.... congrats Max. This thing is ugly. BUT... you can stain it any color you want!

What is the list of perfomance mods now?

Cool! What is it? Elite? I like the reversed bars, how do they feel? R

They feel ridiculous, but it only goes 35mph. It's a Yamaha Razz 50cc. Surf rack and stereo still to come. Also, the cherry bomb muffler needs to be quieted down a bit. Some old lady on my street threatened to shoot my tires out if I didn't quiet it down.

Should've told her it was a rearward firing machine gun!

Enjoy your new funky thing!

You'll get splinters.

I used to get a new woody every morning.

It's only when they last more than 4 hours that you need to seek medical attention.

Hell, if it lasted more than 4 hours, I would call everybody I know!

Make sure you keep moving, or the termites will get'ya.

That is COOL. Upside down bicycle handlebars and bicycle stem = SUPERcool.

To brag, or to help?

Hey Max,
Love the new Woody...
What did your old woody look like?

Somebody has some taste on here! 8)

Here is another woody to admire. Congrats don't forget the Pledge.

OMG. i love it.

Max
What is that bike behind your Woody in the middle picture?

Puch Magnum MKII top tank moped getting the cafe treatment.

I'm seeing more and more ink about classic styled mopeds.
A young fellow here buys them and gets them running and was selling some Puch mopeds for a hundred and fifty bucks! He even had a matched pair. Are mopeds the next big thing?

Have you been to Portland or San Francisco lately? They're all the rage there, but I don't know if it will catch on in less hip areas. I think any small displacement high mpg vehicle will do well in the future. Think about how the 70's moped boom happened; gas prices.

If I would have seen that on CL I would have done my best to outbid you.

That thing is awesome!

Well done and congrats, let me know when your tired of it.

I would varnish the wood so it shines.

Do you call it a razz or a woody when you add it to you avatar list?

mopeds are HUGE in Richmond.

Avoid termites.

I have to say &.. I apologize before hand...

WTF? Anything but the REAL Woody featured on the Jimmy'Z shorts I had in the '80's that was made AFTER Germany invaded Poland gets the big WTF? This may have been possibly done well on some European platform like a Vespa, but a Grace Jones Honda? I dunno... To each their own..

Sorry for my bile, but I just don't get it.
