Default hey joe

you had one of those bike bugs. I just saw one in the swap shop for 500 bucks. So what do you reckon the difference between a 31cc weedeater mounted on the front wheel really is.

Im curious because you can buy a new 31cc bolens for 75bucks. All the hardware to do a first class mount is under 50bucks.

The only difference in my bike bug (23cc) and that one is a bunch of cc's and the fancy mounting hardware.
