Ok, if you cant tell by the title this is a mega fail waiting to happen. Anyways, the most hilarious buying experience i've ever had!
So I went to this apartment complex with my buddy Brent (BMCarter) as I was going to ride the scooter home and he was going to drive my truck. She was asking $500 and from the pictures it seemed to be in pretty good condition. Well, we're walking down the long driveway to the back parking lot and we heard a scooter start up. I was thinking "perfect, at least it runs for being a pos." Well...about 3 seconds later I heard tires screech and a bang. We walk back there, the scooter is on the ground with plastic pieces around it and a dent in a car. Turns out these two chicks that owned it (literally Chinese lesbian dykes) both were starting it (one on the throttle and one using the kick starter...dead battery). Well, they lost control of it and hit the parked car.
Luckilly....I used this to get the thing for $200 telling them that the engine is now damaged (couldnt start it after the crash because it was flooded). Took it home and it started right up! It just needs a new tail light, left mirror and well...I don't like red scooters so it's getting a flat black paint job soon. Oh, and the auto clutch thing needs a part replaced since it barely wants to move forward right now (some pad looking things are worn down).
Anyways, super stoked I got it for $200 and thought it was way too funny that they crashed it as I'm walking up with the cash to buy it. I'm looking forward to not spending $400/month on diesel for my truck but only downside is I'll have to cary tools for when it breaks again.
P.S. Ignore the spelling
