Single seat with cafe tail. 16 inch wheels as I recall. Top speed of about 55. It was not very practical, but great fun around intown Atlanta. In about 1978, my car mechanic begged me to sell it to him well after they were out of production and unavailable. As of a very few years ago he still had it.

Precursor of GROM.
That's awesome! I found one of these at a dealer earlier in the year.



I had to really resist going home with it.

Against my better thinking I put my new exhaust on today.

BRAAAAAP
