What I may end up with- A 1968 Yamaha YCS1

Biceps and I have been looking for an affordable second car. However, we are cheap/frugal and aren’t about to clean out our savings to do so.

Biceps has been busy researching CNG vehicles-which is a vehicle that runs on compressed natural gas. CNG is an expensive addition to most cars, but if you can find one already converted-the savings on fuel is outstanding. The average cost of fuel is $1.11 a gallon. Hello!

Meanwhile, I have been busy researching this. A 1968 Yamaha YCS-1. It’s cheap, easy to work on and gets amazing gas mileage.

To be perfectly honest, it scares the living daylights out of me to think I’d be driving one of these around the crazy streets of Tulsa. Biceps has promised he will teach me how to handle this and prepare for all problems, mishaps, breakdowns, etc.

Still, yikes.

But, I don’t venture too far from home anyways-I like it here, why would I leave? I do have to travel a few miles to the gym daily and to the grocery store when it’s necessitated.

If I end up with this, my only two questions are-what kind of cute basket could I put on the back to carry my belongings? And, what type of helmet comes in uber small for my little noggin’?

Cross your fingers. This lady might be heck on wheels before you know it.
