Hey Stig,
Have you tried a ceramic paste or coating on it? might help against future scratches

Hey Stig,
James Taylor also has a house in Jamestown RI. Real close for the Newport Jazz Festival. You ever see him there?

Beautiful pics Rufus. I have been down the Dalmation Coast of Croatia and it is beautiful. We took a boat from Pescara, Italy to Split and the scenery was beautiful.

General Discussion / Re: Weekend ride report on my AK550
« on: September 02, 2025, 06:22:45 PM »
Its interesting to see the new 2025 Kymco AK550 Premium here, but it seems that they detuned the engine a little bit
My 2022 AK550 has 53 HP and 40,6 ft lbs of torque
The 2025 Premium has 50.9 HP and 38.4 ft lbs of torque
I know it seems like a small change, but I wonder if these figures are better for engine performance

That battery removal is a pain in the butt....also to have to remove the fuse connector on top cover gave me all kinds of fluster...

Glad to see you out again...I took a ride around the Scituate Reservoir in Rhode Island the other day and it felt wonderful...Riding along the beach or in the woods are some of my most relaxing drives.

You know that Supra is a reskinned BMW M240....i have the same engine in my X3 M40i. It really is a beast. They are discontinuing the Supra, BUT they are bringing back the Celica and MR2.
