Hi Augidog,
You are correct it should have been stressed that the "Regular" Whizzer is alive and well, and will continue to gain market share.
I do know the motor on the Ambassador is very capable, and can certainly supply the "goose" it needs, and if down the road Whizzer hooks up a CVT [ya never know] it would add a whole new meaning to their slogan "Ride one and you will buy one".
Please move the post to whatever area you think best, I only wanted to let everyone here know about the new Whizzer first [I am sure there are a few Whizzer dealers that still haven't received the news yet].
Because of all the different state laws concerning mopeds, motorized bikes, motorbikes, scooters, etc, it is hard to tell exactly how the new model will be classed, however I am leaning towards "lightweight motorcycle". In my youth in Dayton, Ohio I owned a 1951 Ambassador [in 1958] and like the famous Whizzer Sportsman it had a kick starter, no pedals, and was classed as a motorbike, but it drove the police crazy because it didn't require a motorcycle plate, but a fifty cent bicycle plate. I guess somethings never change, it is now 50 years later and the debate continues. But one thing is the same, Whizzers sure are a lot of fun no matter how you class them.
