Copy all. I have a lit reflector on my top case, (yep, milk crated that bad boy) but I will be adding some of that 3m reflector tape to the crate and a semi-permanent tail light as well. I haven't had any issues with the left and right hand signals here in the Jaw. The reality is a lot of the driver...

The common complaint about side stands for the modern scoots is they retract when they ought not to leading to dumped bikes. Mastering the centre stand is the best option I think. +1 to that. The side stands are spring loaded and don't lock into place like motorcycle side stands. As soon as you str...

The ET2 is a little taller than you would expect but my oldest daughter Hannah is 5'2" and she managed ok on my ET4. The ET2 is a much better bike than the ruckus though just because it's a two stroke. The ruck 50 doesn't have enough go to get out of it's own way. Hannah drives a Vino 125 in Ca...

Actually what you are referring to John is MF. Only Americans add extra letters to acronyms. eg. Temporary Duty = TDY We just call it TD.

MTF = more to follow although it could also be Me! Trevor Friesen! :D

Sometimes working for my company is great. Other times it sucks. Despite the fact that I had planned to go to the Jag rally in EVille this year, the company had other plans. The Battle of Britain parade is on Sunday and [sarcasm]due to my lofty position [/sarcasm] my attendance is mandatory. Next ye...

So I started moving forward on some of your tips Yarko. Got a rear rack in lieu of a fender. No panniers yet. Might go the way of the Taiwan Top Case, aka Milk Crate for that. Replaced my lost old air pump and added a side mirror. Gotta watch that on the bridge or it will get sheered off. Already ha...

Those other bikes. The ones with peddles and no throttle.

Hi all. I have recently taken up the middle age hobby of "Running from Death." I find myself in gyms, weight rooms, and on trails gasping, wheezing and being generally mad at the world just trying to put some distance between me and a hole in the ground. It has recently occurred to me that...

They are a really awesome bunch down there. That pink and white P was the big raffle prize for their rally this year and I I think that is three years in a row where prize was a bike. The last year I was there it was a ratted yet perfectly serviceable P125. Peak SC and Sportique have done a great jo...

Did the parts for my engine arrive already? What was the final decision on the crank. New assembly or just new bits. And which bits?

Well that was a great weekend. Rides were had, food was ate, beverages were drank, lies were told, memories were made, and some of the worlds problems were, if not solved, thoroughly debated. It was great seeing you guys again and riding with you on the mean streets of Moose Jaw. And that mean stree...
