LOL when I saw this topic,I thought this is what you were talking about.

When I was a youngster 3 of us had cushmans,we rode them all over.

Our Yamaha Zuma125 we carry on a rack on the front of our 06 RAM3500 with our Lance truck camper.

It was right at freezing when this picture was taken, lots of insulation.

Are you riding 2 up on the Yamaha? Plenty of grunt? Or is it lacking?

Yes, riding 2 up. Does a pretty good job with the 2 of us, will run 50+. We normally just use it while we camped to tour with.

I'm happy with it. We put 150 miles on it in the Outer Banks a couple years ago when we camped on Ocracoke Island for 5 days.

We've taken it up the Blue Ridge parkway from Cherokee, NC.

It's 125CC so not real big. Mounted on my front rack it doesn't block my headlights.

Would be nice to have a 250 but would block my lights on the truck.

Like I said three of us had Cushman's whe I was about 10-12 yo.One guy had a real old one that had the box like for a seat and fender.The other guy had a new one that had the kick starter on the side of the engine like a motorcycle.Mine was like your pic,it was metallic blue with leather saddlebags.We rode them all over the county.Of course there was a lot less traffic and a lot less government.None of us had lic plates or driv lic,we weren't old enough.The only time we were picked up was in this little village about 10 mi from home.They didn't have a jail,they just called our parents to come get us,no fines or anything.I don't remember why they stopped us,we were probably being wise azz.
