I actually am. I sell these things in our business and we have a wrecked one out the back. Workshop guy and I are going to put a 250cc under it and have some fun. Probably wont go as fast as that one but it should still be a hoot.

Reminds me of the Smart cars with Hayabusa engines.

They both seem like "hold my beer" moments.
