And..."THERE IS NO WIND RESISTANCE BECAUSE IT'S ALL OPEN AIR." What the he** is the author talking about? It looks like the punchline of a bad joke: "What do you get when you cross a rickshaw, a pirate ship and a motorcycle?..."  Personally, I'd take her down to bare bones and put some aviation paint stripper on that tank and side cover. (But not for 6K!)
