Looks like they are just waiting for traffic and more than likely they are all chinese scooters and seeing the chinese writing on the buildings I would guess to be in china. Listening to luke most of those scooters should be dead on side of road not able to run and I did not see a one that wasn't running. Every one of those riders is smarter than luke who couldn't get his chinese 50 to run at all.

Guess what Luke. This video with "All those crappy Chinese scooters" is from Taipei, Taiwan. Don't You recognize Taiwanese scooters when you see them? Amateur.

I've heard that two wheels is not for everybody but this seems to put a dent in that. Imagine if every one of those scoots was an SUV? It would be a two hour video.

It was even better to see stuff like this in person. I didn't see this bridge in particular, but almost every stoplight was a smaller version of this. It's a neat video, and no Luke, none of those bikes are Chinese. The Taiwanese would rather choose a local manufacturer than ride a Chinese bike. There are some stout cultural differences at play there, and the Taiwanese are rather fiercely independent from the Chinese Mainland. They are all KYMCO, SYM, PGO, Honda and Yamaha mostly. Yamaha was the most prevalent brand that we saw in Taipei actually outside of KYMCO, but no Morphous. That bike is far too large for Taipei, and not nearly the handler it would need to be to survive over there. Cyborg - They don't really do rallies there. These bikes are their everyday transportation, and there are so many that it isn't a tight knit community of riders. They have a much different view of what a scooter is there as opposed to us. They take the car out for a fun weekend ride, and the scooter is the day to day drudge transportation typically. We went over wanting to talk about their scooters, and the wanted to talk about our cars. KZ - Thanks for the re-post! Everyone else - Go like the page!Matt |
