Easy. You're crazy and you don't know what you want.

Yeah, we'll see. What I don't understand is why she bought that thing. For the money, she could have had a good used Ninja 250.

But a Ninja doesn't have the character, heritage or collectors value that bike has.

You think that thing has collector's value? It's a 1974 Honda CT90. It's basically a dual purpose moped.

It runs, but I think the splines on her shift lever are stripped out. I haven't looked at it in person yet.

Is that even considered a real motorcycle?

It's street legal and you have to have your endorsement to ride it. So, I guess! The top speed is about 50 mph.

Scooters are fun.

I have just as fun on my scooter as on any of my other bikes.
