I have a new toy ....

[Kyles]

OK its not as fast as the skyline... but i did drag a crummydore today.. and won well if you count who was first off the line haha.

I got me a scooter

So ... what can we do to it??

Nos?

Change the exaust??

Neons?? (actually considering it hahahaha)

anyways, its a red Vmoto Milan.. very funky! I got it up to about 70km an hour today. Feels like your going alot faster though. Should beable to get it up to about 80km/hr. My new baby is tucked away nice and safe inside the house at night.

well here are some photos...

watch those things tho. My bro got one, brand new, and the engine died after two weeks. It might not be under warranty too because somewhere in the fine print it says that for the first 1000k's you cant do more than 50km hr and it needs a service @ 300km. If you just bought it new i wouldnt go 70 in it

You're 21 and bought a scooter? WTMAO ?

[sileighty]

cause kyles is a full time uni student, it was the most pratical and financial option. and hey $22 rego for 6months compared to 200 odd and cheap insurance = great way to get ur ncb up.

[Jay95R33]

Very cool !!

One of my friends has one, she uses it in summer to ride to work etc.

A tank of petrol is about $6 and lasts all week

$22 rego!

If they didn't look so girly i'd buy one myself just for to/from work

[skyzerr33]

theres a more blokey version costs about $400 on the road.

and to get it up to 110, u can get the pistons bored out and the cat drilled. Guy at work has had it done to one.

[JXL]

hehe vmoto baby

yeah super cheap, alot of my friends have gone down that path since they have cars that need alot of Premium during the week.

mmm not bad. problem is strapping a stock r33 turbo would be like strapping a t88 to a suzuki cupachino. :burnout:

$400 for the scooter?!

[G0DF4Th3R]

u sure its that cheap

[mitchy_]

maybe its meant to be $4000...

[Kyles]

Yeah ive read the small print, not allowed to full throtle before first service... but.. ahh.. new toy.. put it this way... u just get the keys to ur new skyline... "you cant go over 80".. of course you dont do that for the first few days. Ill behave myself! Today driving it i stayed about 50-55. Wont be long untill ive done 400km for first service though, already up to 180.

[miss_petepie]

Might be a bit awkward in a couple of months time

hopefully i'll have some wheels by then. so kyles will get the car and i'll have to take the scooter to the choochoo station. seeing i only work 2 days shifts each week it works out fine.

oh and i mean the blokey version was an extra $400 on the road compared to kyles one, my bad.

Because of winter?

Well.. i figure .. each winter, we get less and less rain. And when it poors down, its only for 10 or so min..

I rode today in the rain. Was fine. Came home nice and dry. The bike wasnt much different either. Just had to be a bit more carefull

Yeah.

Just watch out for cars, they tend not to see bikes or just don't care

[uneekwahn]

Yeah, in such a small vehicle, you've got zero road presence, and many drivers don't watch out for you.

I was looking at buying a peugot scooter before I got the line, but when I took one for a test drive and was nearly run over by a 4WD, I decided I needed something bigger
