1985 Honda Aero 50 that runs fine
Nice condition in black
$250

What do you guys think? Would you do it even if you already have 2 scooters, one is a project waiting to be finished...

if it's anywhere near where I live than it's totally not worth it... in fact you should just give me the guys number and I'll let him know you aren't coming...

:twisted:


Seriously though, I love my 84 Aero. That is a pretty decent price and mine is nice. Does it have a title? How are you transporting it?

Everyone does whenever I transport anything in my beloved Civic hatchie. They always doubt it...I'm the only one laughing in the end cause I don't need an SUV or pickup that gets 15 MPG to transport mopeds, bikes, furniture, etc. I just fold down the seats and drive away happy... :D
