Interesting. I haven't seen one quite like it. Didn't expect the "fuel tank"to open in the vid. I like that. It's a shame more 150s don't come stock with a pipe like that.

Hi Most of the Motorcycle style inspired scoots use a fake gas tank for additional storage space, its one of the features i love about them Take care and ride safely dear friend Yours Hank

yeah it is very unique for a scooter also to point out it is a bottom mounted 150cc gy6 engine. XD :crash:

That's a pretty sweet looking scooter. Be easy to put a 200cc kit on it. Don't see too many of those scooters running around.

Looks nice, a more modern version of a gilera DNA. They will handle more like a scooter than a bike though. Should go well with 200cc

see and personally i don't know how a bike handles. lol what i do know is i had to remove my frame stand off my 150cc scooter i had because i scraped it in half leaning through the turns. i hope this turns out to be a fun bike though because it looks fun just sitting in pictures. on a side note if its the right case i may put 16" on it.

I noticed the bike didn't kill itself when he dropped the kick stand in the video (somewhere around 4 mins). That is to keep the bike from running forward if you start it and it revs high enough to grab the CVT. Also to keep you from grabbing the throttle at idle while the rear tire is touching. There is already a problem.
A parking light would have came on the dash to let you know the kick stand is down and the engine kill would have engaged.
