Did you just call a motorcycle cute?
Your man card is in jeopardy now.

I have a 22 month old daughter and a baby on the way. I am allowed to say cute. I can occasionally say precious as well.

Re: Aprilia RS50

For that price it would be a hoot on the road. And it looks like it might be street legal?

It is street legal. I had a buddy in MN that had one that he rode on the street at times.

~8k street miles on mine. They are cool 6.1HP stock mine has been 99% race built, only thing left stock on the motor are the crankcase sides so mine has 12.5hp Fun and unique, draws more attention than any bike I have ever seen so far.

And you can ge busted for speeding on an RS50, trust me its possible

Here you can get a ticket for going over 30mph in a vehicle with a 50cc engine...I had the SR50 scooter with a few mods. way too much fun.

Re: Aprilia RS50

Ive got one that I ride as a street bike these days. It keeps me out of trouble and is a blast to ride around on. Ive never checked on the mileage but mine will do 86mph and I would guess it gets better than 50mpg.
