deer are a menace, here. We have so many that I won't ride on certain roads at dusk....and there are other roads I won't even DRIVE my car on at dusk due to the number of car-deer accidents that happen.

A youtube motorcycle channel I watch showed the guy's girlfriend filling their 'deer feeder' at their house! Who feeds deer?? What, do want more of them running around to kill you quicker on your bike?? Crazy.

I-80 thru PA is like that, not just at dusk, I swear the DOT plants deer browse in the median on purpose, one big food plot, Don't follow a big truck too close, they just mow em over and leave surprise road kill

my nearest miss was a slalom between mamma doe and baby fawn as they walked in front of me

Agree with Ruffus that the AK is very different than a conventional scooter. [snip]

another in agreement, I compare my AK to a SV650 I once had, the fun factor in the twisties is similar if not better, add the Brembo brakes and better suspension, cargo in the whale belly, touring comfort. The Kymco AK550 is a reliable hidden treasure.

crazy by who's definition?

I don't think so crazy, cause turns out, it's easy and doesn't take any special skill, just the proper tires

lot of bikes out yesterday here in northern New England, sunny temps up to 50s, back to cool damp & 30s today

One evening, my grandmother was called into work at Wright Patterson AirForce base. She gave my brother $10 for us to go eat dinner at the Melodee Diner in her little town in Ohio. It had one stop light.
I was about 10.
I had the shrimp dinner.
A few hours later my grandmother loaded me into the back seat of her Pontiac and rushed me to Wright Patt....where the flight surgeon pumped my stomach. Of course that was hours too late. I didn't die - just wished I was going to.

Oh, she had a few words with that diner! (I think. She made us wait in the car.)

one of the reasons I like where I live in NH, fresh seafood, several friends that fish for a living, mostly lobster. Fish market in town, owner drives down to Gloucester, MA every morning 4am to pick up yesterday's catch, never know what kind of fish he will have in the market today, but he tries to always have lobster, scallops and some kind of white fish, cod, haddock, pollock, sometimes shark or tuna. Yesterdays fish taste great today, but tomorrow might not

a few years ago, my GF bought a cheap no name scooter, she rode it back and forth to her job 2 miles away, for 2 months, then one day she came walking pushing the scooter, had no idea what was wrong, never thought of putting gas in it
