WHAT high gas prices ???? NORWAY is a VERY civilized nation and they now pay an equivalent of $ 8.73 per gallon.......Come on you United Staters ! ! Or are you called Americans ? Stop being such chickens......Peep, peep.......

[KeeperofTheMountain]

@sierracuban Certainly you picked up on the humor of this post. I do supose that it is perspective. For us to go from $2 up to $4.50 in a couple of months would be like Norway jumping to $18 a gallon in a couple of months. That along with all the rest of the political foolishness going on here we are in deep chicken doo doo economically speaking.

Gets along alright doesn't it?Reminds me of the old DAF33 cars made in Holland,which had an aircooled 4-stroke,and a belt drive automatic transmission using tow cones l think! Over here in England we're paying £1.33 PER LITRE!

Ragheads.Who'd have 'em!?

[KeeperofTheMountain]

@AG3304 It seems the DAF33 drive system is the ultimate in CVT. Driving one must be a very different experiance. Did they have reverse?

I have a motorized bike  :) 130 MPG

@jacktheripped Me too It is a 50cc HONDA 4 cycle. What are you running?

@sierracuban You don't have the land mass size of the USA, nor the poverty rate we do. We cannot afford high gas prices because it makes everything else go up too and the jobs don't pay enough to keep up. Now, with that said, mind your own Norweigan business.

[townkevin59]

I think America should drop the laws that forbid these type of vehicles from driving down the road. If we all drove Golf Carts (Which I am for anymore), it would be more fun to travel, cheaper, and less people would be killed in accidents. I think it makes perfect sense. So it takes longer to get somewhere, SO WHAT...we all need to slow down anyway!

@sierracuban i get what you mean over here it's even cheaper than in Norway but still

where I live it's 1,40+ a litre and a gallon=3,8 litre, so thats 5,32 and we've got it in euros.

1 Euro = 1.4356 U.S. dollars

so thats actually 7,45$ US Dollars and i think it might even be 1,50 Euros

@KeeperofTheMountain Must've been odd to say the least.More like an electric car l'd think,and yes,there was a reverse on all models.

@KeeperofTheMountain THANKS MY BROTHER........I was born in Cuba, but came to the States at the age of 10 in 1963......The following year my dad and oldest brother ( who spoke English ) signed a contract for a BRAND NEW gasoline station in a town called South Gate, California.......From the year 1964 to 1969 when my dad sold the gas station, our price for regular gasoline never went above 23 cents per gallon, and premium ( Ethyl ) never went above 38 cents.....Incredible but true...

@KeeperofTheMountain One of those Chinese 2 stroke kits off of ebay. greasy noisy little suckers but they do work ;)

I have put waaaay more into mods that what the kit costs but i'm a hotrodder at heart and the parts are so damned cheap....
