First day on the scooter....

[Nick Chapman]

Not too bad at all on the way to work. Of course it was 5:30 in the morning, so traffic was almost non-exsistent. But, got to work in the same amount of time it takes me in the truck. Going home at 2pm should be a little more exciting, but I can take back roads all the way home, so traffic shouldn't be too much of an issue.

Figured it up today, if I can drive this thing to work everyday(which I know isn't possible with the weather), it will cost me less than $5 per month in gas. Thats a heck of a lot better than what it cost to fill my truck up every month!

Nice ;)
Mines blue though. Top speed is about 40mph. But, she get a little unstable and some speed woobles. Try and tame her down to about 35 or so. She wheelies very well with the motor in the back. Makes for a real light front end on take offs :D

[ELVIS]

god bless.

[Nick Chapman]

I go just about 5 miles. I can take all side streets, so no hwy.

[Murph Tang]

[Nick Chapman]

As long as gas prices keep going up, I will keep riding this thing as much as possible.

Thought about fabbing up one of my old dampers on it. But it would be too much trouble. Plus, the way I drive this thing, it's gonna blow up soon :D
