Pimp my Honda Zoomer – What’s hot – Technology – Virgin.net: “So you’ve pimped out your iPod beyond all recognition with hot custom accessories. Now what’s next on the pimping agenda? Well, if you fancy a tightrope walk along the cutting edge of scooter cool, look no further than Honda’s Zoomer.

This chunky 50cc bike, with tyres fatter than a rhino’s rump, has become a huge hit in Japan and the States thanks to the phenomenal customisation scene that has built up around it. There have been Zoomers with PS2s installed under the seat, hands-free kits, custom paint jobs, surfboard racks, and stacks of other top gadgets worked into the bodywork. And now Honda’s pimp-me-please city slicker is set to launch over here in the very near future.”
