Yeah, but would you like to drive it down the Interstate? How long do you
think you'd live if you tried?

I was the proud owner of an original Suzuki Brute -- right-hand drive,
2-stroke, 360cc, and 47mph flat out. It was great fun to drive around where
I lived in Silicon Valley but when I got transferred to Alaska I needed to
get it to Seattle for shipment north. The distance would have been maybe
800 miles. It took me two days and I got stopped by police three times on
the drive because of my speed (or lack of it, actually).


"Can't get out of it's own way on a downhill with a tailwind" comes to
mind.


And or an 80's Oldsmobile diesel.
