[QUOTE="ghostler, post: 564712, member: 9204"] I remember back in the 1970's whilst in college, I rode a 1971 Honda CB100 motorcycle 4 - 5 miles to the university from where I lived. Its engine was a touch under 100 cc's and with 5 manual speeds and a true clutch had enough zip to easily keep up with the city traffic. It's top speed wide open was about 60 mph. I borrowed a friend's moped, top speed around 32 mph. Used it a couple times, it was frightening to use it on the busy Honolulu traffic as cars went easily 10 mph over that even though I traveled to the edge of the road as was law and custom. I was just as well off with a bicycle. Then, I bought by mail order a set of small universal motorcycle ABS hard bags. They had enough room I could carry my clarinet and were lockable, good for keeping my books and shopping dry when it rained in Honolulu. I also mounted a universal package rack on the back, bungee my alto sax to it, didn't have a tenor sax then. [/QUOTE]
