The cool thing about these bikes is that your first impression will be your every time impression. Enjoy!

I'm with LR and The ferret. Every time I go out for a ride, It's just smiles for miles!

#1- they are stainless, so should never rot out.

#2- oil in the packing will ruin it

#3- if the oil gets on the O2 sensor, you will be buying a new one.

Glad you are enjoying the bike.

Not many appreciate this tip.

fwiw, she is NOT advocating I get rid of anything. (heck she has a supercub for herself).

Mark, what the 2-strokes you presently have??

A Grom with a Quadracer engine?

Wow- would like more details, but in order to not step on the toes of the original poster- can you put pics / vids in the 'other bikes' section?

Wow..
