I realized that I could, with practice and proper use of gears, break 20 miles per hour.<BR/><BR/>It's fun to take on certain trips, as long as there is a good pedestrian path (or residential-streets-only path) between the two points.<BR/><BR/>The Yamaha makes it more fun to do within-20-miles driving around town. (How much would you pay for 4-wheeled vehicle that does 35 to 40 miles per gallon in the city? I paid less than $1000 for my two-wheeled vehicle with similar mileage.)<BR/><BR/>The Yamaha isn't a cruiser, so it may not be the best highway vehicle...but I'll get around to testing that sometime soon.karrdehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00205160745963596856noreply@blogger.com
