Shhhhhhhhh!!!! I really want to add a TaoTao Hellcat (or similar) to the fleet and have CL open every day looking for a used one. There were a handful of them on there in May (going for like $600-$800), however now it seems they're rare.
For full disclosure: I also own four smart cars. I have one of every generation, plus a convertible because I needed a topless car in my life. I have a feeling I'll collect more bikes than I will cars.

And that’s how it happens! You see cool videos and read about forum members modding theirs and the next thing you know, you are picking out your favorite color! If you see any good deals on CL, let us know and we’ll help you pick one out!

I've not seen that channel, I'll look into it!
I think what I love most about these things are how cheap they are. Problems on my Buell can get expensive, yet if you wanted you could buy a whole new engine for a Chinese scooter/Grom clone for a couple hundred. And then most other common parts are like $20-$30. I have my eye out for a good deal. Or who knows, maybe I'll just give in an buy new one day.

See what happens?!?
I’m minding my own business and...BAM! Next thing you know, I have a Tao Tao Hellcat on layaway! Now, I could blame RedCrowRides for telling us all the cool things he is doing/planning for his Vader, or watching all the videos on YouTube about Vaders, Hellcats, and all the other Grom Clones, but NO, I take full responsibility for my wreckless purchasing on the internet! I won’t blame it on the super deal I got on my Hellcat! No, I’m going to place blame where blame is do! My...50th Birthday is around the corner AND I WANTED ONE!
Be careful and use caution! They are everywhere! Ride Safe!
