The salesman for my LIKE200iLX
« on: November 19, 2018, 09:45:41 PM »
5 yrs ago my salesman assured my wife that the "200cc" LIKE was capable of running on the interstate.
I-70 passes by, just 200 yards out the back door of this dealership.
I'd buy the gas, if he'd ride a LIKE200i, eastward, from Dayton to Columbus on that highway, posted at 70mph.

Well, actually, wouldn't wish that on anyone....he'd be lucky to average 53mph on those long grades climbing out of the Miami Valley.

And, I'm feeling a little peculiar.

All ya gotta do is throw a grappling hook around the back of a passing Semi, wrap the other end around your neck, and hold on.  Gets ya right up to speed, keeps ya warm and dry, and saves on gas, too.  This guy I knew named Hugo told me how to do it.  Ya know, Hugo Furst.
