I fixed the link for you. I just edited the "slash" URL tag off the end. My dealer is supposed to get the MadAss 125 soon. I'm really looking forward to seeing one.

Too bad it's made in china.

Sachs is a well known german company, if they shipped bikes to the USA made in germany, the madass would be probably 5-6 thousand dollars. They make the ones shipping to the USA in china to keep pricing low.

I think it's a cool bike, it's got gears like a motorcycle, but it being Chinese, I cant trust anything chinese when it's motorized and I'll be on it.

Peirspeed is Cobra which is also TGB, so any TGB dealer should be able to get 'em, if/when they finally arrive. Some were imported by Tomberlin in the past, and there's a knockoff brand called Xkelton Trickster.

Check out the sachs six-speed X-ROAD 125 minibike they're supposed to be getting, very cool looking.

It is made in China, IIRC, a chinese company actually owns the name now. I know that's the deal with Benelli and that seems to be working out well for them, though I still haven't had a chance to test-ride the Benellis or the Sachs.

Hey HMBscoot: They sell the MadAss at Ptown scooters here in Portland if I remember right. Thats not in California, but at least its not all the way across the country.

i think the lack of a fuel tank is very cool. i might have to get one for my scoot once we're in germany (years down the road)

Yeah I checked one out last time I was over at Ptown to get an oil filter for my Buddy. They're neat looking bikes.

EDIT: Hey Kurzer, where in Beaverton are you at? I work in Beaverton and drive from Oregon City to Beaverton every day on my Buddy
