Title: Stig trading in the LIKE200i !
Post by: Stig / Major Tom on February 05, 2015, 10:40:29 PM: Sick of riding the bus when it snows.
I found a dealer who will take my Kymco in trade for a 2-wheel driver in der snowski !!
Can't decide, the silver and black....

One is a 1940 something, and real cool. The other is one of these repros.

Not to hurt your wishes... Look more into them.

Black No doubt. The silver will look bigger but be much harder to clean all the nooks.
One bike here (old one) is redneck Camo, and the new one is Flat black. Both were re-sprayed in Tallahassee.

Still, it is a great book.
Re. the welds.... who gives a carp! It's a majestic looking answer to my city bus issue.....plus it has a 3 year warranty. If it breaks, just bring it back to the warranty boys in Sarajevo. (that's up around Cleveland, I think)

Hey Karl,
OK, I've got Red October out for a test ride....he said, "You've gotta do about a thousand Klicks to really get a feel for it!"
So I swung by the army/navy store and picked up a couple old leather flight helmets for us. No worries, remember that I have your address - I knew you'd be game for a run up to Canada.
They only had ONE RAF helmet....so I got you one with a rising sun on each side.....both of which apparently have been pierced by.....well, looks like it was a 30 caliber.
Wear your flannels....this could get interesting.
Look for me at the end of your drive @ 0-Dark:30.
,I'll fire a red flare at your front door.
Your comrade, Stig
