Just a try, does that make it bi?

Light at the end of the tunnel!

On retrospect, the 80kmh cruising speed was enough, but it was the acceleration that felt sluggish and disappointing. None of the pep I see other scooters having at the stoplights. Will ask the owner what engine it has but doubt she knows.

Quite liked it, pretty cool bike. Could see how fun one is as a commuter if you get a faster one. This wasn’t fast at all, it topped at 100kmh on a downhill but struggled to get past 80kmh on the flat. No idea what engine it has, but on these the rear brake is plenty enough as long as you don’t confuse it for the clutch. Special picture just for you: Dropped that for a service as a favour for Sofia’s flatmate, and jumped on the Speed Triple going for lunch, quite a change.

I will have a completely new motorcycling experience today. Riding a Vespa! It’s got no front brake to make it interesting, but it’s teal blue and has a little topcase!

Pretty bikes, I had a sit on one, makes my GS feel light in comparison.

Probably still going, so he's right

You watched a Tarantino film yesterday?

Seems to me they might be in the same boat as you, trying to offload her but tied into the drama.

Like bringing it over and swapping chassis numbers like they do with stolen vehicles? That would be a fine way to end up in jail, better to deal with coke and at least the profit margins would be higher

After all it would end up costing similar to a local bike, surely.

There’s a shop here that mostly imports Harleys, I think from Poland or some such place, so there’s money in that surely.

Dealers aren’t very agressive in pricing like in the UK though, they’ll hang onto stuff for ever trying to squeeze every euro out of a sale. I wouldn’t dare importing something from outside the EU though, probably a nightmare and ending up costing almost as much.

I don’t know about Harleys but the prices vary a lot according to spec, the classics seem to be cheaper and the CVO are 5 or 8000 more.

What year is it?

Needs an engine sticking out to the sides to balance the tank

There aren’t many toys made after his son, though.

The XR was quite fast for the time, though. It was a part of his act, can’t match the stars and stripes with a Honda quite the same way can you?

Marcel’s next botm submission:

Maybe that will do it.

I think your 10 day stay in Portugal is just right for a proper tour of the country, with plenty of stops to look at stuff everyday and stopping early for refreshments and maybe swimming pool. I’m not really one for museums and proper tours around places but some of the history does deserve a stop to be looked at.

Don’t know whats with Busabeast and Marcel and posting mostly about cocks

Don’t know what you mean, that’s Sofia and that’s her bike, I just took the picture.
