– 2006 Yamaha BW’s
Nothing gets you around town quicker and more efficiently than the decidedly zippy 2005 BW’s sport scooter.
The peppy 49cc reed-valve 2-stroke engine fires up effortlessly at the push of a button, and fully automatic transmission makes for gas it and go operation, so you can just enjoy the ride. There’s plenty of room for two on the comfortable seat, and a large storage compartment under the seat lets you stash your helmet while you grab a bite on a patio somewhere. Wide aggressive tires, front disc brake and rear carrier complete the package. Ride a 2005 BW’s and remind yourself why you choose to live in the city. Make every ride a total hoot!
