Not a new bike added this time, I’ve just bought a new toy, a Smart ForTwo Pulse. I really like these cars and they share quite a lot with bikes.
Once you own one of these you see how many modifications and tweaks there are out there. Lots of videos where people have dropped in bike engines (can’t wait until my engine goes bang!).

- 65 mpg!!
- 700cc nippy engine
