Skint George Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 It's not green and not military. I believe it's a Chinese "Gas scooter." I've seen people ride these sort of things at some events but not this type. So, what is it, how many were made and what age could it be? I don't think it was ever registered. Any help appreciated. Thanks. George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skint George Posted September 12, 2013 Author Share Posted September 12, 2013 Don't be silly John, I need the bricks to put through your windows! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roof Over Britain Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 You would be better keeping the bricks and throwing the "thing" through the window! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fesm_ndt Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Ok without being cynical [ATTACH=CONFIG]81785[/ATTACH] It must be fairly oldish as when I was in China recently almost everything was electric and much more classy [ATTACH=CONFIG]81786[/ATTACH] Saw very few petrol or gas run bikes as I believe a clampdown on trying to curb the massive pollution problems. With the electric ones they must have to recharge a lot as they beep their horns constantly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skint George Posted September 13, 2013 Author Share Posted September 13, 2013 Thanks Mike, and I'm ignoring you John! The search for info continues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skint George Posted September 14, 2013 Author Share Posted September 14, 2013 (edited) By the way, it does have a proper stand! I'd ask Clive about it but too embarrassed...LOL P.S. I mean the bike and not the stand! Edited September 14, 2013 by Skint George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skint George Posted October 3, 2013 Author Share Posted October 3, 2013 I can finally answer part of my own question. It's a Boreem Tankman scooter. With a name like "Tankman," maybe I should paint it green! Why not, others do it with Brockhouse Corgi's ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.303fan Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 i like it, electric propelled would do for the quiet camping at the war and peace... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
broken arrow Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Cannot remember the name of them but in 2004 to 2006 there were dozens of shops in Spain selling them, infact two of my own children had them and went everywere on them ( shush thay were only 14 and 15 ) lots of Brit kids had them infact i think there is still one in one of the garages at our villa, must have a look when i get time. Thay sold for no more than 135 to 150 euroes good fun and you could get an upgrade kit to increase engine capasity but never met anyone who ever did.

Skint George Posted October 6, 2013 Author Share Posted October 6, 2013 .303Fan,There's nothing quiet about this PETROL scooter! You would be loved using it at the War & Peace as an alarm clock. You'd thank god the weapons are deactivated! It works great since I changed the Centrifugal clutch! Broken Arrow might bring his over to demonstrate it's quiet abilities to you.

Skint George Posted October 10, 2013 Author Share Posted October 10, 2013 Sorry mate, I'm not up to dressing up on a first date especially to go riding with you,I'm not that sort of boy. When you get the chance, any chance of a photo of your bikes? Thanks, George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
