Bikes: Felt TK2, Felt Z5

Today we had a kid come into the shop with a gas motor powered Huffy cruiser. For the life of me, I have no idea how much that thing weighed, but it looked to be about the same as a 1989 Chevy Suburban. We have a customer repair stand in the back which is free for anyone to use, along with a complete set of tools. Kid came in to adjust his kickstand and we had to ask him to work on it outside for insurance purposes. Nothing with a motor on it can be worked on it in our shop I guess. It sure felt like we were completely giving him the cold shoulder, and you know, I think we were. That is not a bike, that is a moped with a 49cc gas motor on it. People can argue with me and others until they are blue in the face, it isn't a bicycle anymore at that point.
