Oh!! Shelly, think you are joking, As the fuel tank lid top diameter is more than the lid mouth and there is flip on lock to...so there is no chance of water & stuff, moreover you can see the top end of the tube runs into the tank itself

Well tried " Off shore Engineer", expecting you to join with us for this kind of kindergarten engineering quiz in future (hey joke buddy

)

Ha ha ha, since I couldn't think of anything else other than breather tube I had to say that !

, Anyway, another one to your collection and this time my eyes are gonna be treated by few more of your latest acquisitions. looking forward to it !

...

By luxury i meant styling of the whole moped not just a feature. In comparison to the usual Luna / Tvs / Avanti/ Hero models, the Sportif stands cool as a very neat package in terms styling & features. It never gives the feeling of built to a (minimal) price. Hero 'Puch' models also were styled good, Kinetic spark/ safari were closer. cheers for the video

Thank you Frank !1, but all that I can give you a 99%,'coz as on date I have only that much, wish to give 100% Wish to share some thing about Honda CUB, ( mine is a 1976 C90)

Clubbing both " Owning a Piece of Biking history & hunting parts Geographically"

Broken plastics( front FENDER, leg shield, Turn signal lights, rear Tail light, Air filter, was purchased at a Boonseiw Honda retail outlet at Malaysia not on-line or neither by INFORMERS or Detectives....but by a LIKE minded friend ( Mr.SELVAN), that too he brought it as a "hand luggage" { mind, though not heavy but Volume of Leg shield &fender was huge...even I would have put in a Cargo}
Rest...as usual

Can notice the fender belongs to some latest Cubs>>
