quick trip around the neighborhood.. 125cc scooter i designed and built it from the ground up. very fun project. with a gps speedometer i have had it up to 36 mph but i didn't have a long enough straight, safe place to try it out with cars and stuff, i bet it will probably do 40 mph with room to do it safely. just for a little perspective this bike/scooter is very comfortable for me i am 6 ft 200+ lbs and the bike weighs 140 lbs full of gas, a medium pit bike weighs 200 lbs. that is a huge difference, it is very maneuverable and runs really good, i have ridden a few dirt bikes in my time and this bike is the most fun. i spent a lot of thought on the design as this isn't what i have done for a living. i was a tool and die maker for 43 years so design is natural to me but not of scooters. so i got a bit lucky as to how nice it turned out.
