How many miles on the Puma and Pegasus now?
I think the Puma is about 1,000 and the Peg about 2,000. I've rode the Peg a few times on my 80 mile work commute but I use the Fashion almost exclusively for that. The Peg can do it, it'll do 65, but it's kind of taxing for a 150 to do that. So the miles on the Peg and Puma are all recreatonal around Chelsea.
What kind of SYM are you looking for?
I of course like the 300i SYM Citycom, size matters! What a great melding of big scooter power with a nimble design. At 20 HP I'm sure the thing would haul gluteus maximus:
The RV 200 actually has a bigger scooter profile that I really like. I'm sure it would move out also even with the smaller 170cc engine:
Hearing GREAT raves about the HD200 and the Citicom 300... of course you know I'll " hook a brother up" 
Those MSRPs would need a lot of hooking.....hey, that didn't come out quite right.  Well, maybe it did come to think of it.
Bashon... Glade to see you and the wife got out on the scoots and enjoyed yourselfs. Nice looking scoots too. I don't say much but I enjoy Scooter Doc and a little poke in the ribs once in awhile.Magoo
Thanks man, I'm glad you enjoy the forum and I seem to need a poke in the ribs fairly regular myself. |

You could buy both of those SYMs for the price of a BMW C650 you know, even without a break from Cookees.

Bashan, Congrats on the 30 yrs of marriage! My wife and I hit 36yrs in Dec. It is nice to know someone somewhere in the US has warm enough weather to go riding. Yesterday here in NH it was 48 degrees with nice warm breeze. It was warm enough to pull my trike out of the tent garage and start thinking about riding. Today it is 30 degrees with wind chill of about 10 degrees, too cold to even go out to the barn/work shop to play.

75 today kids! Seventy five!! Gotta love Bama. We rode together for the first time this year. 25 miles and it was gorgeous. I just reread this thread and forgot I posted that stuff about a Citycom. Strange how things work out sometimes.
You can see I have the front panel off of the Puma. It was running hinky so I set the valves and opened up another port on the air cleaner. Something was telling me it needed more air. Sue kept up with the Citycom no problem after that. She gets antsy if I don't go fast enough. Her sister Darlene and her husband Steve are bringing their bikes down at the end of March and we are going to put some callouses on our butts!

Thanks bud, good words from a good man. The temperature plummeted down to 75 this afternoon. Did you hear that Cookees? Let's see, let me look on the ipod. Um yeah.....23 in Pittsbirg!?  That's just a few degrees above absolute zero, enjoy!
We spent about an hour on the twisties in Chelsea Al today. Chelsea is famous for it's hard to understand southern accent. Even harder to understand than southern France.  It basically sounds like someone needs the Heimlich maneuver but is staying alive by violently forcing air through their sinuses. Kind of a pate goose on meth.
There is one spot on the planet that has a harder to understand accent and it is around a mountain in Arkansas called "Pet it Jean oh please pet it it needs petting." I don't know what that language is, I think it's from mouth breathing cave dwellers but I'm just guessing. Who is this Jean? Does she like chiropractors? Has she in fact petted anything other than that mangy dog that won't stay in her yard? Does anybody have her number? Jean, if that dog craps in my yard once more I'm going to pet it. I'm just sayin'
Oh yeah, the ride.....it was great. I digress. The Citycom powers through the corners and I have Sue's Puma (please don't go there) snorting. I said don't go there, I'm warning you. Keep it up and I'll send you up to stay with Cookees for a week. I did that once and I stayed in what Cookees called "a really cold arse cellar." Go figure, another accent to deal with. Rich

Yes I believe they did but KZ could probably confirm that and stay away from my wife's Puma you robotic swine. By the way Kalee, when I talk derogatorily to a grammatical second person they are imaginary and it's just an astoundingly humorous comedic device and not directed at you. When Cyborg is involved it is directed at his inferior vena cava. Da-dump....da-dump...da.....uh oh.
