I did 526 miles one day last summer on my Silver Wing and showered and went out with the kids. Like sitting in an easy chair...

You know how it is Mike. Luke has a poorly designed scooter, so it's no wonder he suffered. Fortunately it didn't break down like John's Majesty on his 190 mile trip (Yamahas have terrible speedometers so I'm sure that's the real mileage) and Luke only needed a spare Morph for parts when he got back. Of course his age explains a lot. At 76 he's probably a lot more frail than you or I.

My Fashion Has a windshield. Which is great for rides over 25 miles. Most of my past motorcycles have had quick removable windshields.

Since her Trike has a Linhai YAMAHA engine it will probably be about her clutch or variator needing work. You know how flimsy they are Luke. You spend hours every week fixing yours.

my goodness!...what's the use of a windshield if you are wearing a helmet?? tell me!!!!
Keeps the rain off, and makes for a warmer ride in the winter... I actually have two windshields for my 250. One for summer, and one taller for winter or rainy weather.
