It is unique looking, but not offensive in any way. That was a good write up btw.

it's a good scooter considering it's carburated. carb cons:cold weather sickness/stucking float/gas leaking from carb/unburn excess gas/need to deal with petcock/ gas smells all over the garage/too much components inside the carb if one part goes bad,that's it,too much tinkering/ gets gummed up easily cuz there are too much tiny components inside/ need to deal with numerous gas tubings etc/ carb tunning is like tunning a guitar,complicated,runs differently when cold,and runs differently when hot.grrr!/ affected by humidity...... carb pros: uhm still thinking about it. but don't get me wrong, i like the Helix, i mean the real one. conclusion: it's the computer age, let's go EFI, that's where the trend is.....  |

I'm not sold on fuel injection on bikes. I want to be able to work on my stuff if the need arises, not trailer it to a dealer when it suddenly quits. How many people out there have been plagued with "Check Engine" lights from bogus sensors or even a weak connection somewhere in the 17 miles of wire in your car? I want to ride not take my bike to a NASA technician.
No fuel injection is why Helix's have gone over 100,000 miles trouble free. It's the Volkswagen Beetle of bikes.
