Today my son & I had day one of our safety riding class (2 full 8 hr days).....but I was out on the LIKE at o'dark thirty for a bit of a ride. The fuel injection always fires almost before I turn the key.....and I let it warm while I finish my coffee. (warm up an aircooled 4 stroke? Been doing that since my first vw beetle - you were told to warm it long enough to roll your joint. I had to use my imagination....but I got the idea. Give it a couple of minutes to warm up and then drive off gently.)
Went down to the lake and took some photos, while dodging the deer and rabbits - well, at my modest speed I don't really need to dodge anything. They tend to wander towards me to see what the noise is.
Sure do enjoy this scooter.
(Lordy~! We did almost 11 miles on an airfield for day one of class. 11 miles around in patterns. That's a long ways. Sure hope this motorcycle riding doesn't mess up my T&G scooter riding. Was on a 250cc Yamaha all day - though I kept 'selling' scooters to anyone in the class who'd listen. They put up with me, good-naturedly.)
Well, if you're certain the Kymco is for you -welcome aboard! (the Buddy folks have a nice scooter (albeit a bit smallish) & a nice forum,too - if a little testy about other scooter brands. Folks want to think they are riding the best ....... "As good as, or - good, too!" is fine with me.)
Beautifully clear and cooler day today - saw 15 or so 2-wheelers on the way home - one of them was a scooter!
