    i've had mine for 7 years it's been through everything. would not trade it for another. it's very heavy,but worth every dollar you spend on it. just my opinion..........

    haven't been able to get the wife on the bike. i'm a very lay back rider so the ride will be good. i'll probably take my 9 year old grandaughter away for a trip. don't know what direction but we're going.

    my store is the same as any other grandfather, but it's time to tell mine, i took my 8 year old grandaughter for her first ride today, it was a short 25 mile ride,but it was the thrill of her life. and as any child she wants a bike when she gets older. i told her each time we go out the ride will get longer and longer. she rode really well.......thanks for listening to a proud:bighug: young grandpa.........

    thanks everyone,i know i don't leave the choke out long enough so hopfully that's it, if not then at 600miles i'll get it check. also about the 600 mile check up how important is that. i've talk to some and they say it's not that important, just asking. thanks,bob

    just need some piece of mind or there is a problem. i live in n.j. and i've been riding finally, temps have been in the 30"s & 40"S but it seems to take the bike a long time to warm up before i can go. if it doesn't it stalls....is this the norm? only have 300 miles on the bike..... thanks for any feed back, bob
