I was never an Eddie Albert fan. He reminds me of both of my grandfathers, combined.

This is the type of scooter that all the vintage guys want. I remember a few years back at the annual Vegas scooter rally there was this guy who wanted to know what bike I had. At the time I had one of those cheap Chinese 50cc bikes until I got my Kymco Agility 125cc bike in December of 2012. I remember the guy tells me I should take the bike up to the top of the El Cortez parking garage and throw it off the structure. Of course his name was George Lambretta. True story guys.

That's a very interesting looking bike.

First things I noticed are the front shock, and the belly pan. I bet that bugger kicks ass.

Since they are all vintage bikes with 2 stroke engines, they have what I call the freedom smell which is the mixing of oil and gas together.

That's what I grew up on. 2t bikes.

The only 4t's I ever messed with were in lawn mowers, and beaters we drove around in the woods. Today you can't buy a 2t anything... It's a damn shame.
