My roomate and I both bought Spades
152miles on mine,
157miles on my roomates.
74 Is the top speed of my roomates, 71 is the top speed of mine *I weigh more than him by almost 100lbs* At some point I will try and do a GPS verification of what the DASH says. * I was DEEP into RED.
I want to get an exhaust though I want to know the Dyno numbers on it before I order it ( MNNTHBX says they are dynoing their bike ( either this weekend or next ). I love this little thing. Though I did ride my VSTROM 650 to work today,

I've accrued 135 miles on my brown Spade. The MNNTHBX exhaust arrived last Saturday; I need to bolt it on. Waiting for the chain guard and Galfer stainless brake line.
I'm impressed that you managed 71 downhill. Had to be over 9K in top gear. I've seen 67 very briefly, but the tach swung way red to get there. I figure if you can redline it in top gear, than a 120/80-12 rear tire and a +1 tooth front sprocket may be in order.
Love this bike, as it has a lot more minibike mojo than my K-Pipe. The K is a fun bike, but it doesn't quite encourage hooligan behavior like the Spade does.
Guess it's called the A.I.R. 150 at home, the trim looks a bit spiffier:
After watching again, A.I.R. apparently stands for "An Independent Rider".
Found this walkaround as well, that shows a bit more to compare with our bikes:
Ill post pics up tonight when I get home.
