bar bares , i do it all on bikes i plain on stunting on.

so today while i was working on my new idea for my 96. my friend ryan stopped over. He was going through all my scooters and wanted to take out the 89. (SlowMobile as its now nicknamed. ) so i let him.
About 5 minutes later he comes back laughing about how the slowmobile is so light compared to his eton beamer, he was talking about trying a wheelie, so i snagged my video camera and followed him.

Gettin a lil cold to be wearing a t shirt outside isnt it?
I am not a mechanic, nor do I play one on TV. Actually my advice is probably worth slightly less than what you pay to view it.

I cant stand riding under 65* my legs freeze and I cant feel my hands after a few miles.

Threw it in the back of a boat and drug 500 miles south.

I used it as a pole holder a few times. It held the mini pole perfect and worked like a good luck charm too! :lol:

Thursday thru' Sunday it held up like a champ. Changed the plug a few times and i had to clean the carb Saturday after trying to jump a huge mud puddle.
This thing as proved to me that a junker can be enjoyed just as much as a show bike.

YOU SOB!!!!!!!!!

I'm only about 45 mins away from LBL. I thought that with the mileage, and the scenery, that was where you went. Next time say something lol.

So you take this trip about every year huh? Maybe next year I'll have you bring me down a dio when you come. :lol:
