I'm BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now the question is since today my scooter was laid to rest (dern thing blew a hole in the side of the crankcase) I'm debating on what to buy next a trike or another scoot?? If anyone wants to know what has happened with me in the past few months send me a message and I'll fill yall in on the details.

Good to see you back. I know some day for me to ride I will need a trike but today I am riding 2 wheels and lovin it. I know every one is different with different needs but for me I am going to put off the trike as long as I can. It is and has been in the back of my mind for a long time and should I stumble upon one for the right price I might jump on it and start fixin it up for later use. john

Well all right PJ! What a journey you've had, you should write a book. We're all grins now that you're back. ;D It'll be nice to see new freaky finds in PJ's Corner again. Rich

Well were do I start hmmmm ok Apr 3rd got a new kidney and took a while to recover from it. Then yesterday the motor blew in the scooter aka burnt piston and dropped oil somewhere, tomorrow going to get a new scooter I wonder what I'll buy hmmm only time will tell. Yes I could write a book but that would be about 10 or more volumes when I'm done with it. Trust me there is a whole bunch of stories I could write about

Well, I have not had a new kidney yet. But I am having a lot of kidney stone problems. A while back I had kidney stone surgery session and in two weeks more I will have another kidney stone surgery. That and that I had shingles last summer and an eye surgery for growing cataracts. Far too many times in doctors offices and taking medicines with narcotic pain killers. My scoot is now 1 1/2 years old but only 78 miles on it. I hope to see the doctors less after this next kidney operation. I sure would like to get more miles on the thing.

Good to see you are back and doing well. I am now 79 and occasionally I do have a bit of balance problems. I don't know if it is age or some of the medications I have been taking. By fall I should be done with the medications and then we will see how things go. I have been thinking of one of the multi wheel machines. There are tricycles, the ones with two up front, and another that has a narrow rear wheel setup and a windshield over the thing.

Glad to see you up and about, PJ. Sorry to hear about your low mileage on the scoot, bobf. You guys might be in the market for a trike pretty soon. I like the idea of reverse trikes, but there has been some bad reviews on them. I think one of the best reverse trikes is the Piaggio MP3. Now, if the Chinese can make a decent clone of this scoot - wait there may be one out there:

Now, if Roketa can only put it on the American market, we may have a decent reverse trike which is even better than the traditional trike.

Welcome back PJ, hope all things are well with you.

[puddle jumper]

thanks guys I'll be on as often as I can I'll keep the trike in mind but I went and looked at a Roketa 150 today and i thinks I'm gona buy it if they come down on the price a little. which I'm sure they will.

i bet a trike is better in the snow and ice. are reverse trikes called spiders? we had a 3 wheeler ,,gy6 150cc engine. kinda looked like a dune-buggy / go cart w/2 seats side by side,, steering wheel,,, it had much wider apart front wheels,, i'm thinking 5 to 6 ft span it was tippy though in the turns. good thing it has a roll cage!! looks like one can lean into turns with that MC-21-250(LYD) in the link from cruiser.

thanks for the link, cruiser
