Hi, I am a 60 year old retired male with 46 years on two wheels of all kinds. I am fairly new to scooters (two years) and enjoy easy rides on my Jonway 150 and Royal Enfield motorcycle. My wife rides a first year (1985) Honda 250 Rebel. My daughter rides a 600 Ninja, her husband a KZ1000, and my other son in law a Suzuki SV 650. It kinda runs in the family. I have experience with GY6 150 cc engines as we have two 2005 E-Ton ATVs and find working on something as simple as a scooter a blast. My first bike was a Honda Cub 50 in 1965 and I have been hooked ever since.

Thanks Alleyoop. It will be in the low 40s the next few mornings but I will still be riding. I ride 4 or 5 days a week and have been known not to use my truck for over a week at times. Happy new year to all.

Hello bullet from Plantation in Broward county in the state of Florida. If I get my trike going I'll be riding. i can't wait to walk the dogs at 6:30 AM when the temps are in the 30's and the wind is blowing.

Hey Bullet, great to have you on the forum. Sounds like you have a real stable of two wheelers, just the way it should be. As the guys said, nice to have a wrencher with some experience, your advice and opinions are always welcome. There's no snobs on this forum so don't worry about sarcastic remarks. Well, there is Jay's Journey but that's a different animal. If you need any help posting pictures or getting around the forum just let me know with a PM. If you've got a tech comment please post it in the clinic section. Have fun! Rich

Hello bullet from Plantation in Broward county in the state of Florida. If I get my trike going I'll be riding. i can't wait to walk the dogs at 6:30 AM when the temps are in the 30's and the wind is blowing. I am close to the turnpike and Peters road and am looking forward to the low 40s tonight. Let me know when your trike is up and running and we will go for a ride. Bashan, thanks, I am never too old to learn and I am looking forward to helping when I can.
