The Oppo vehicle of 2020 appears to be a motorscooter.

Nice buy! I’m shocked you got pulled over. I’m guessing the cop was just befuddled :)

I’m going to do as close to that next month! Offloading a couple of the two wheeled fleet and picking up Atfsgeoff’s Burgman 650 in PA then riding that sucker home.

It was a campus police officer. I should have been pulled over, I haven’t plated it yet.

Are they rare/desirable?

Rare? Oh yes. I think they’re more rare than a Tomos, certainly. Desirable? I think only with  the kinds of moped lovers that like Tomos mopeds.

I love Tomos but the cheapest ones I can find in my area are like $400

I’m hopefully gonna get my C70 registered next month. Just waiting for a warm day so I can do some wiring and get the headlight working.

Will it fit in the back seat of a cabriolet? Stay tuned! Which of us will do it first?

Oh it 100% will but it’ll leak gas

Yeah the Tomos I had last summer leaked gas when on its side. This Batavus doesn’t leak though. The gas cap seals pretty good.

That’s nice. A new gas cap is last on my parts list for the Tomos. I just got a fuel petcock, to replace my leaky one, and a set of mirrors.

Next thing is a better exhaust, and if it’s still too slow a 70cc kit will be in order.

If it’s not a huge project that’s no so bad. I got mine for 200. Knowing it would be a  project. I’ll probably have 500 into it when I’m done. But I’m also doing a bit of customization, and improvements as well.

I’m still kinda surprised. I rode for months on a plate that was nine years expired.

Eh, I would think an expired plate is better than none at all

Yeah, I saw the seat you made on Instagram. I dig it!

What exhaust do you have? The biturbo a35 exhaust lets you rev higher for more speed.

Buying mpeds/scooters/small two-wheeled vehicles seems to be a trend on Oppo now... Which, if you ask me, is not a bad thing at all!

Stock exhaust with the baffle pulled out.

I think I’m going to get the Techno Boss exhaust. The bit of research I’ve done says it’s about as effective as the BiTurbo but 15-20 bucks cheaper.

I guess so, yeah.
