Hello...hello.....hello........(echo)....it has been a little quiet, lately!  I got in a 24 mile ride yesterday afternoon, temps in low 50's and massive wind gusts...and I loved it! The Helix does get blown around a lot but that's part of the fun...leaning into the wind, going with the flow...trying not to get blown into the oncoming lane of traffic!

added in a little garage porn to spice things up...

I've haven't done that much exciting scooter riding the last month or so.  I do have over 18,300 on my Like 150i now but I've just been riding it locally.

I did get out on one of my other bikes and ride with friends last weekend.

Sorta like more riding in good weather and less talking/writing? Maybe everyone's computer is gas-powered  and the pump price has limited use.....MGM AKA 300winchester is busy trying to chase down multiple failures on a UXV700i but a great deal of comms is back channel.

There are several poor waifs with 50 cc problems and questions .....

Yep, we're still here ex-KLR, just riding and servicing rather than typing!  It'll pick up when the winter weather closes in and there's nothing to do but read about Stig's early morning ventures out in frozen Ohio!!

Reminds me of the Vespa forum.  The Libertys (🗽 ?? ) have proven so bullet proof and reliable that we owners (us owners??) (we who own Libertys?) get very little press🙃

Owners of the expensive and troublesome GTS 300's don't appreciate us.
Some less vain are now looking hard at the Royal Enfield 350's at half the price....good build quality and 3 yr warranty!

Owners of the expensive and troublesome GTS 300's don't appreciate our complaints of apparent perfection.
