The Vespa goes to War

[thewalrus]

The Vespa goes to war - this modified Vespa, complete with rocket launcher, had a 145.2cc, two-stroke single cylinder engine, drum brakes and a top speed of 66 km/h.

Just what we need for downtown vancouver traffic. Can I get SUV piercing sabot rounds for the rocket launcher?

I hope it's recoilless otherwise you might find yourself following the rocket into the back of the SUV.

buh?

would the scooter not go in the reverse direction because of the force applied by the rocket!?!?!

Rocket launchers don't have any recoil do they?

All the gasses just fly out the back of the launch tube so hardy any recoil force would be transfered into the bike..

Anyways, thats awesome!

yup. rocket launchers don't recoil. plus any residual force, if anything, would push you forward a little bit.

now if you mounted an artillery rifle on there we would have a different conversation...
