It has become an important tool to get around town, short runs to the store or anywhere that the car doesn't really warm up for saves a lot of gas. The Cadillac gets 16-17mpg when cold/warming up. Somehow the Cadillac gets does get 27-28 mpg hwy. It is kinda fun buzzing around on the thing.

I just have no place for something like that. I live in the sticks so all hwy driving around me. Not real safe on one of those. But if it'* saving you gas, great.

Safe? Meh. What bike is safe??? When you hit something does it really matter if you flew over one of these rather than a Harley? Still, I prefer the comfort, look, and stability of my V-Star Tourer. At 6'5" @250Lbs, I would look pretty silly hovering over that frilly moped. BTW, Even my V-Star get'* 50-60 MPG depending on my demeanor of the day. And a big reason my GXP stays low miles.
