I picked this up used over 25 years ago for my wife to buzz around town on. 1995 Honda Elite 50. 50cc's of smoky, buzzing 2-cycle fuel economy. I would fill the 1 gallon tank up in the spring, ride it all summer at around 80-100 mpg to work, top it off in the fall for storage. 35mph with a tail wind off a cliff. OK, OK, it's not Quadraphenia material but I'm no rocker on it. Now, I can say with all honesty, it is an awesome babe magnet as this is the only two wheeled contraption that I ever had women approach me on and chatted me up. When I found out why, I promptly parked it and told my wife it's hers to ride from now on. :LOL: '95 honda elite.jpg

You left us hanging. What was the 'why' that caused you to promptly park it? Inquiring minds need to know.

Probably thought he was gay and safe to approach without getting hit on.

Same thing happened to me in a fabric sewing notions store. Not that there is anything wrong with that, but at first I thought the ladies liked me for me (yeah, I know, laughable, but I'm gullible sometimes), then they asked about my partner and did he sew too? I wanted to lift a leg and let a ripe one rip out just to prove my manhood, but sadly (despite my screen name) I was totally deflated by that point.

❄️I was left simply crushed and wilted. ❄️

You could make it even more of a babe magnet by putting a cute little puppy in the top box. :D

I have a steadfast rule concerning dogs and since it may well ruffle a few feathers here of some of the members with delicate proclivities, I can only utter my opinions in person to those with iron wills and fighter like constitutions.

And to clarify, I grew up with dogs, I love dogs, dogs mostly love me, they are definitely dirty animals, but dogs have personality and personality goes a long way. :)

Yes sir Dave, personality goes a long way. 😁
