The market I envision is not bikers, or avid diyers. When I think, "who will buy this" I immediately think of all the people currently buying crappy chinese scooters. This market is currently exploding. built and marketed right, the streamlined design would add a measure of comfort to, and increase the performance of a small scooter. For example, there are three or four people at my work who commute on 50cc machines because of FE. this market is expanding rapidly. a streamlined 150 is the answer for those who have a longer drive to work and need something that will do 55mph and still get over 100 mpg.
