“powered byan air-cooled 199cc 1-cylinder, 2-stroke “

That probably sinks it right there. Aren't 2-stroke engines prohibited now in the U.S.?

They are usually great engines. Lots of bang for the buck and size.

When I was younger and braver, I had a Kawasaki 3 cylinder 2-stroke that ran like a drill. Power as long as you had the courage not to release the throttle.

The downfall was it had the cylinders beside each other and would warp the head and the center cylinder.

But it would still run, just not quite as fast!

What a blast when it ran though!

Do you get a tax credit? What I mean is when you prepay your burial plots you would buy it?

"I still drive a 1989 Dodge Ram 4x4. It's good for running over "Smart Cars" and the low life turds that drive them."

I'm rebuilding an early 70s Power Wagon (360). ;-)

Our personal transportation in the near future will be the old kind, repaired many times over. Many country people will continue driving their old “gas hogs” (especially those of us in the mountains), or many city people will starve...

Shades of Havana...

Heh. The thought did occur.
