Outside hardware store Honduras

This is kinda cheating. I could take these pics all day, every day here. I just made a run to the hardware store.

The bike in the foreground is really sharp. Any info on it?

That one is the reason I took the pic. It didn't have any name markings on it, so the owner probably painted it.

There are probably 10 or 12 different brands around here, the most common are: Italika (being the most abundant), KMF, Genesis, Yumbo, ...

I'll try to get pictures of all of them over time. I could probably just go to the mall and get them all in one shot. :?

It's a Q. :wink:

I owned 2, Roger and Merle each had one. I even recognize the factory rack, oil filter cover, skid plate, and details in the plastic bodywork.

Also passenger pegs, blinkers, headlight etc. It is likely not a 'Q' per se as different distrubuter/importer but a Quing ji or whatever the original Chinese manufacturer is.

Yes, I immediately recognized that bike as a Qingqi, a.k.a QLink/Konker in North America.
