| Hello fellow enthusiasts, My name's Jim. I'm a 54 year old guy in Springfield Missouri that's owned an '04 Swing for about two years. Knock on wood, it's never given me any problems as it approaches its 9000 mile mark. I became interested in scooters in '06 when gas briefly hit the $3.00 mark. So I bought a 150cc Chinese model with the intent never to drive anywhere but on small streets. As you may expect, the thing was so darn fun I soon wanted...needed...bigger and faster. Um, as it were. Long story short, I've ended up with the Swing and have enjoyed it from day one. I expect to ride it until one or the other of us drops. Glad to be here. |

| There's an old joke that goes "how many bikes does a guy need? One more."
When I rode motorcycles I always wanted the next model up...just a little nicer, just a little more power, just a little faster.
That's why I love my a Swing. There's only the Burger Exec bigger and it's well, bleck. |
