This kid in Vietnam will show you the wrong way. He didn't crash, so his bodhisattva must have been working overtime.

If you are like me, you watch the first 20 laps of the Cup race, go do some chores for a few hours, and return to the couch for the last 20 laps to watch the end. I actually enjoyed the Camping World pick up truck races better, because they were much shorter and less of a time investment. -Nascar has made a radical format change to make you stay in front of the tube throughout the 500 mile race. There will be 2 stage races and then a final stage that determines the event winner each Sunday. The stage races award points but the final stage awards much more. Sort of like motocross. It may work. www.nascar.com/content/nascar/en_us/news-media/articles/2017/1/23/new-nascar-race-format-2017-announced.html |

Shouldn't be long before somebody begins to offer kits to make your Street 750 look like an XF750R. Come on, Ryca.

I rode a motorized bicycle for a few years, Mr Sunset. On occasion, I did 50 mile round trip commutes to work. Just an old Western Flyer with a 2 stroke mill similar to yours. I love your tank frame.

From what I read on other sites, the smax does not have vvt (variable valve timing). That new 155cc mill should be more powerful.

I was hoping for a WIMM pitting Kellyanne Conway against Madonna, or something like that.
That's a great link, though.

Looks like a fun mod, Scrappy. I'm assuming that the rider would tune the CDI by trial and error. That shouldn't be too time consuming if you mount the CDI in an area that allows easy access to the adjustment buttons, like under the front cover.

Currently, guys who ride motorcycle trikes (and scooter trikes) in Texas must pass the same MSF course as two wheel motorcycle riders.
Passing that two wheel course is not physically possible for a lot of disabled riders that are perfectly capable of handling a trike safely.
-I read in RideTexas Magazine that they plan to introduce a bill in Texas that would create a specific Motor Trike endorsement, and applicants would not be required to perform the physically demanding portions of MSF training.
Lets hope it passes and other states follow suit.

Those are very well produced videos and good looking scooters. I like those folding foot pegs.

Is that the Smax engine in a different chasis? Hopefully, the new scoot will fit tall riders better than the Smax.

I am trying to make sense of this.
-The EU bans our genetically and hormonally enhanced beef.
-In retaliation, the US doubles the tariff on EU motorbikes 50-500cc.
Last time I checked, the US does not manufacture many motorbikes between 50 and 500cc.(Harley produces some 500cc bikes) That tariff will not do much to protect American businesses.
-Perhaps its a prelude to slapping a bigger tariff on EU automobiles.

I think every parent remembers the first time you took your kid to the circus. Nothing like it.
