No way I would ever own one, I'm too old and my fat ass is too big. But, every time I see one, I smile and wave, it looks a hoot to ride and makes me wish I were young again. Stay safe!
@@blandrooker6541 understandable. This is an in town bike. I don't take it anywhere higher than 55mph speed limit. Even that is sketchy. I have my Ninja 400 for out of town riding.
I agree with you. Why anyone would want the neighbors knowing when you are coming and going by installing a loud exhaust. Plus you don't have all this buzzing noise when you go for a leisure drive.
I’m pretty sure people want to be louder cause if someone doesn’t see you they might hear you and be more cautious. It just depends if you care more about your safety or if a stranger might be annoyed for 40 seconds.
@@ActivityPhoto that means this bike isn't for you. Just like I don't understand how people can pay $30k for a Harley and more for accessories. That means a Harley isn't for me.
There's no need to protect your flesh in the event of an accident. At least tell your viewers that "gravel rash" is extremly painful. A Southern State?
These are meant for putzing around in a yard. To dangerous to take on street. To low decreased visibility, not enough HP to get out of the way. I can pass this thing with no effort on my motorcycle, a car can run right through this.
@@JessicaSimonson1976 I've got over 5k miles on the street on my blue grom. Only thing I hit was a deer. Those miles will add up. If you're too scared to ride on the streets then that's fine.
These have been on the road for well over 10 years, mini motos as a class of small motorcycles have been on American streets since the 60s. Your concerns, while noted, haven’t panned out in reality. Even the smallest car will plow right through and over nearly any “big motorcycle”. Don’t kid yourself, physics still applies, even on a Sportster, Goldwing, doesn’t matter.
@@StuffwithNeon I ride a 450SS on the street. I have done track days. I have crashed at speeds of 60 mph in a turn on a track, (buried peg in pavement) in gear and walked away. I have ridden my motorcycle down hills with 60 ° grades. I rode dirt bikes and hit jumps putting me about 15' over the height of a telephone pole missed landing and crashed breaking the fork tube welds at frame. I use to open water skip snowmobiles....fear isn't in my vocabulary.
