Old trashed Saxonette 2 speed 2 stroke commercial built bike. Chain driven. My first memory of the bike is sitting on the seat while my dad stood in front of me, holding the handle bars and telling me what did what for the basic controls. My uncle was giving g me the bike, and hetolddad at that moment that it was a two speed. My young (7yr?) brain figured one speed just HAD to be neutral...... I shot the throttle and went straight up dad's leg. My dad was a large man almost 7 feet tall,so nobody was hurt, but I was hooked.
The kick starech was completely gone & the e start was non functional. I started it with a drill and socket. Every body that rodethat bike got hurt. Except me. I loved that bike. I would ride the sidewalks in Detroit. When my family moved to Kentucky, the bike was damaged in he move and I lost track of it. Have loved anything two stroke ever since I have a modded two stroke scoter with the 1e40 bottom end and a Polini Corsa cylinder (47mm) and Technical exhaust. It will run fourty eight mph verified with true GPS. Still not asuch fun as the mini..I now have a small fleet of scooters but badly want to be back in the MB scene
