Yeah I saw that video. I've gone 55 downhill on a cruiser bike, and I personally don't want to go that fast on a bike again. 25 to 35 is a comfortable cruising speed for me. Going fast is fun, but going that fast just makes you ask your self if you payed your life insurance this month...
Yeah, cheep cruiser can get dicey @ speeds over 50 mph
I have an advantage riding a Whizzer, Shes built good and she's not gonna go into a death wobble or explode :ROFLMAO:
For me when the speed limit is 40 - 50 it's nice to be able to do the speed limit and not be a traffic hazard

Just look at my "location" in my Avatar...lol...I am in Alamogordo, NM right now...Before that, I was on the seacoast of New Hampshire for 22 years.

Originally born in Boston Massachusetts...I'm a retired Lieutenant Police Constable for The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, retired from that in 1989...That's when I moved to New Hampshire where i decided to unretire myself and got my ASE certified master mechanic/technician and then was scooped up by Valvoline Oil Corp. to help run their VIOC garage locations for the east coast of the US as well as their mid-atlantic regions but I always maintained my office in Portsmouth NH...If they needed me to fly anywhere, it was on their dime...lol.

My final retirement was in Nov. 2010, In July, 2011, I moved here to Alamogordo, NM...The sight of the very first atomic bomb test in 1945, before they bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki Japan.

Ps...I did my college in California and graduated in 1975.

Unfortunately a whizzer is way out of my price range. I looked into getting one, and I would love to have one, but that's something future me can get.

I'm curious what performance parts you can get for those, aren't they a 4 stroke L head engine?

I was just thinking it would be hell to ride a MB in LA traffic. Shoot it would be hell in Boise traffic let alone LA.
