Yeah - its attached to my helmet sticking off the side. When I am filming I do my best to keep from randomly looking around alot, but sometimes still do. I have the 89 dollar Midland XTC camera that walmart sells, it records in 720p HD and is awesome for 90 bucks. All mounts are included with that price. Can't go wrong with it.

Thanks Roy - honestly it is funny looking and certainly far from what I'd describe as sexy! LOL

I have my other 150 that I like alot and my motorcycle, so I only brought this for commuting and functionality. It has been the most practical vehicle I've owned.

So I decided since people always ask me what kind of roads and speeds I ride the Automoto in daily, I decided to record the whole 42 mile ride home from work yesterday. I trimmed all the red light wait times out, and cut the whole trip down to 18 minutes so people can see it riding on almost every type of road and traffic. And of course its still raining here so thats in the mix to.



I thought my ride was 38 miles each way, but yesterday clocked on my phones GPS app and its 42.6 miles, for which the Automoto's odometer clocked 41.9 for so it's pretty dang accurate, then I realized that meeting my friend for lunch down the road is another 4 miles each way so thats adding 8 miles a day. Then I realized that I ride 1.5 miles past my house to my daughters school to pick her up, and back again everyday so another 3 miles and I realized I am putting 95 miles a day total on it. Then last night I set out to hit the golds gym and realized thats 6 miles each way so another 12 before the days over, now I am up to 107 miles a day - I realized why the mileage is growing so fast and I am changing my oil everytime I turn around LOL!!!

But all this started me thinking this bike is a pretty reliable machine because I haven't had any real problems in quite sometime. I do wish they made a longer lasting belt than 5000 miles because that comes for me pretty quick but its not bad to change so I won't complain. Once it warms up I am going to split the mileage up between my motorcycle alot more during the week because I know I am killing this little 150 with 500 miles a week of riding.

The shop i use for things that I can't / don't feel comfortable doing tells me that. Using it everyday is the key - vehicles aren't made to sit for a week or more at a time then be expected to perform. This results in leaks, clogged carbs and the list goes on and on. He did tell me that when I get over 30,000 that this engine will likely have to be rebuild, but then again thats not really that expensive either.

I didn't realize that air cooled engines don't last as long as liquid cooled ones till he was explaining the difference.

Got that right lol

Can't believe how the miles stack up on these bikes. My two wheeler 150 has 28,000 now, and the Automoto has racked up 15,000 in a year of ownership.

I still laugh at anyone who calls Chinese scooter junk or throwaway bikes. Mine have been pretty good to me for sure.

I'll give it a try sometime, my gas never has time to collect water lol
I fill up every evening when I get home since it only holds a gallon. It uses about .8 gallons for 70 miles of riding every day
plus a few extra since I go out at lunch almost everyday.
