..new respect for my rear brake..
« on: March 01, 2010, 12:30:33 PM »
..so, i was riding in 4 lane city traffic, 2 in each direction and we're in the left-hand lane..I'm behind a little mazda and we're cruisin along about 40mph when we top a hill, and there's a car stopped dead in our lane!!!!!

..the mazda swerves over into the right-hand lane, and so do I, then the mazda STOPS!!!

..itsa funeral procession..

..so i'm jammed hard on my rear brake and I hear this high-pitch squealing sound, and the ass-end of my scoot is shifting back and forth and I realize i'm actually sliding my rear tire...

..never thought it was possible to slide the rear tire on an Agility....now i know....

..anybody know where I can buy a new seat for an agility 50??  ..i seem to have lost mine again...

He'll get his seat back after a big boy bowl of Corn Flakes... Good thing you weren't busy posting from your phone!
