    Not even a motorcycle. Bought this Vespa GTS 300 about 6 months ago for 50 cents on the dollar. It had <400 miles on it. It's been a blast. So easy. Plenty of zip and very quiet. I end up using it almost every day to run errands. It minimizes a lot of the hassles of living in a place that gets crowded like Ft Lauderdale. I'm surprised how much I like it.

    No kidding. It’s a cool little thing that feels more crafted than produced like the Japanese versions. That said, it has honest to goodness headshake like I haven’t seen since a bad Kawasaki I had.

    I guess I haven't posted here in a while. Here are some of me on a couple of my race bikes. They're all ex championship bikes that I bought and use for track days. They're quite fun and I've amassed quite a few but here are two of them.

    It is by far the quickest Sportster I have ridden.

    It is the first Sportster I have ridden with NOS, but it has the most amazing sound and acceleration when the NOS is turned on in 4th gear.

    NOS, I missed that, aftermarket, that's not standard?
    Do you really need NOS,

    I have old man Fat Boy, just picked up Honda 500 for son to train on. I was looking at the Ducatis I really like them, had Diavel years ago

    Thx for reply
    Best,

    No, regarding the NOS. It was just an over the top thing while I was building it. The NOS is set up to only come on with a micro-switch on the carb linkage.

    It has some other stuff, aluminum cylinders with steel sleeves, roller rocker arms, dual spark plugs, two Thunder-Jets in the carb, and compression releases for kick starting.

    Not many people care about these old XLCH's.

    Thanks for your interest.
