Is this how the speeder bike started out?


Minuses:  Uncomfortable, no storage space, poor fuel efficiency for a scooter, burns through rear tires.
Pluses:  Would stand a good chance of smokin' a Porsche 911 Turbo in a drag race.

MCN, mostly known for Motorcycle News, couldn't help themselves when they heard about this scooter of eeeeviiil.  The 2Evil is a custom tweaked dragster that sorta started life out as a Gilera with twin Malossi 86cc cylinders... you know, I don't think that's even an accurate way to describe this thing.  All I know is at the end of the day you've got one mean 172cc 2-stroker.  Lots more cool photos and a breakdown of the parts can be found on MCN.

The Honda USA web site has been updated with the 2010 scoots.

http://powersports.honda.com/street/scooters.aspx

We already know the list:
2009(?) 50cc Metropolitan
2009(?) 50cc Ruckus
2010 - 100cc Elite
2010 - 150cc SH150
2009(?) 600cc Silver Wing

Must likely, the Metro and Ruckus will get replaced with a new 50cc model in 2012. Also, they still have a huge gap between the SH150 and SWing.
