    1. why not?

    Scooters are lame in America but have you been to Europe? Australia? Japan? the rest of the world?..... different story.

    2. Exhaust same reason custom choppers and sportbikes have crazy exhaust. Looks.

    I mean....you looked at it.

    1) because its slow and its still a scooter. Soccer is also all the rage all over the world, but is still seen as gay by the majority of America.

    2) but its two completely different types of exhaust. if it was symetrical it would be nicer.

    Yeah, I did look at it, but I would also look at a 16' tall turkey w/down syndrome...

    1. You can make it fast, its been done, like Bucky said no reason a turbo wont fit.Slow... all things are relative.

    What do you expect from a 250cc with 70mpg.

    2. Soccer is a ball game. Not relavent to the topic because Soccer can be played anywhere. Not all scooters are legal on all American roads.

    + Safety to ride something with a top speed of 65 on a freeway isn't a good idea. Most americans are scared of bikes and a scooter is no safer to most of them.

    3. They did asymmetrical exhaust because everyone else had theirs symmetrical. Lots of bikes have different exhaust exits. Look at Yamaha 2 stroke RD500, it had to have asymmetrical exhaust cause you cant shove four pipes to look right on one side.

    I think it looks good....I really do.

    4. You look at turkeys with down syndrome

    If I was going to make a custom scooter it would have to be an older scooter. Something like a Honda CT70 not a vespa.
    Start out with this

    And end up with something like these

    Yes you can but it will also require a good bit of money. I am surprised nobody is drooling over the picture of the turbo setup I posted.
