I know that this bike is probably crap

http://www.scooterdepot.us/250cc-street-legal-motor-bikes-sport-motorcycles-p-744.html

But for $1800.. 250cc..300lbs...  I wonder how much tweaking can be done with it?  The frame is "stamped steel" too which makes me a little nervous..  It's a single which could be a lot of fun or a lot of headache.

ooooo!!

Cute, but that's what decent low mile Ninja 250s go for around here.

From the ad:
"It has scooter sized wheels and a proportional motorcycle body on top of it."

Why do I hear circus music . . .

Those aren't scooter tires.  My Pantah has a 100/18 front and a 120/18 back

The frame is "stamped steel" too which makes me a little nervous..  

not as much of an issue as the one piece stamped offset on the rotors I would think
