Absolutely. I used to own the 50cc version of this bike:
I want to get one again some day soon, and customise the hell out of it. Spoked wheels to reduce rotational inertia, enduro tyres for semi-offroad capability, a fully custom seat, extended petrol tank, panniers, top box, bright LED lamps, and the most important modification, a bored out YX160 engine with 180ml capacity.
Pretty sweet, no?
@lok1 - Thats one unique machine to me, never seen a bike like that... based on ur description it must be pleasure to ride one .... n u r bringing out lots of interest from within like offroading which only a true biker will understand... with the bored out engine u get that speed for an offroader...amazing... hopefully u get ti soon... really soon... n I get to ride it as well :)
The factory installed seat is a bit weird, and the centre of balance of this bike is a little far to the back, but that also makes it very agile. I am looking forward to one day having the souped up modified version like I described. I bet you can do some pretty cool tricks on it. It's not a dirt bike, but I would think this thing would let you disappear into the urban landscape and ride over shit that even fancy road/trail bikes like cops use, mainly because the stock weight of this bike is about 85kg. My old 50cc, which the police repeatedly stole from me, and eventually I let go because they expected me to pay more money than it was worth.
I forgot to mention, the tank built into the main tube from engine to triple tree, stores 5L, and the 50cc version I typically could ride about 210km before refilling. I was riding to and from my sister's place 100km from where I lived back then. I wish I'd just stayed out in the country where the cops didn't care about my 'custom plates' and lack of registration.
Hell yeah, I do intend to do some trekking on one when I get it, someday. I love being on the main, biggest continent in the world. I can go almost anywhere except islands and the Americas.
@l0k1 - wow, thats one incredible love for your motorcycle that I can see. riding a 50cc bike covering 100kms is like crazy and I too wish u had lived outside city... where freedom dominates modernization... n rules are written to enhance happiness and not curtail it... road trip with your beloved bike is the best gift u can give urself.. dont miss that in life....Sorry for missing out on replying to the comment.. :)
It is a good reminder to me, and indeed though I have shelved this dream because of economic reasons, sooner or later I'm gonna have the money, and nothing more important for me to do with it.
This, for anyone reading, relating to the anti-self-voting (comments) campaign, an example of deep engagement between two users and this is why I upvoted with 100% on this comment.
@l0k1 - If a materialistic pleasure can buy the eternal happiness, it is used for a good reason. If money u earn is used to chase dreams then nothing better than that....infact I say thats the life must be conducted....
when our need is overtaken by our greed in life problems arise and happiness takes a back seat... I am sure you will do good economically very soon and start living your dream.... :) I wish u all the success :)
