Default What is this?!

I was at the Generac 500 ALMS race last weekend and the Porsche Spyder RS team was riding around on these scooters. They totally kicked ***, they were making it up some of the taller hills at Road America at half throttle with no running start. Now I know it says Porsche on their but that may just be a decal for the team cause Ferarri's team was riding Vespas with Ferarri badges on them, so the Porsche sticker might not mean anything. I want one of these so if anyone can help me identify it that would be great.



Here's the link to the rest of the generac pics if you want to see them...

I assume that's the scientific name for it.

Found out what it is. It's a Honda Cub EZ90 made from 91-98. They were two stroke dirt scooters. Now I just gotta get one. Thanks for the help guys!

I believe they were only made from 1990 to 1996 and they are not road legal just so you know.

I don't know what they were origionally built for, but I've seen more of these bikes as a "pit bike" than any other scooter.
